Obverse description Elaborate eleven-fold quartered coat of arms with the Halberstadt arms as central escutcheon, surmounted by a crown, displayed within a beaded inner circle. The composite shield incorporates the dynastic quarterings of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel and the episcopal see of Halberstadt. A circular Latin legend surrounds the entire device, naming the ruler and his titles.

Reverse description A wild man (Wilder Mann), depicted standing facing, his body covered in foliage, raising a uprooted fir tree in his right hand toward his left side, set within a beaded inner circle. The date appears in the field to the left of the figure. The surrounding circular Latin motto legend is divided by the central device and reads as a heraldic device of the House of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel.
