Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the War of the Austrian Succession (1740-1748). Despite the conflict, the coin's minting continued uninterrupted, a testament to the resilience and stability of the Bishopric of Würzburg and its monetary system.
