| Aversbeschreibung | Half-length armored effigy of Bishop Ulrich VI facing right, wearing a crown and richly decorated ecclesiastical and military attire, with a prominent episcopal shield visible at lower right. The figure is rendered in high relief with detailed engraving of the armor and vestments. A circular beaded inner border frames the portrait, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery. The overall style is characteristic of late 17th-century South German ecclesiastical coinage. |

The Bishopric of Chur occupied a peculiar position in the late seventeenth century — nominally within the Holy Roman Empire yet deeply entangled with the Swiss Confederacy and the Graubünden leagues. Ulrich VI von Mont was bishop from 1661 to 1692, navigating confessional tensions in a region where Catholic and Reformed communities had been in uneasy coexistence since the Reformation imposed its jagged boundaries across the alpine valleys.
The ⅔ Thaler denomination was a north German convention that found its way into southern ecclesiastical minting during this period largely through trade pressure — the format suited Hamburg and Leipzig fair settlements more than local commerce. The two-year striking window of 1689–90 likely reflects a specific fiscal need rather than routine production.
