| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a seven-line Latin inscription filling the entire field, recording the birth, marriage, and death dates of Elisabeth Juliane in Roman numerals: born 24 May 1634, married 17 August 1656, died 4 February 1704. The text is arranged symmetrically across the flan with the mintmaster initials H.C.H. appearing in the exergue below the final line. The plain field and restrained typographic layout are characteristic of Brunswick memorial ducats of this period. |

Elisabeth Juliane of Holstein-Norburg died in March 1704 after decades as duchess consort of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, and Anthony Ulrich — already in his sixties and a prolific patron of commemorative coinage — marked her passing with this memorial ducat. The practice of issuing funeral gold for deceased members of ruling houses was deeply embedded in German court culture, and Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel produced some of the most technically refined examples of the genre throughout the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries.
Welter 2340 is among the scarcer of Anthony Ulrich's memorial issues, reflecting a limited commemorative striking rather than any broad circulation intent.
