| Reversbeschreibung | The heraldic Saxon horse of Brunswick, shown leaping vigorously to the left with all four legs extended, set upon a ground line above which sprigs of vegetation are visible, conveying the dynastic emblem of the House of Welf. The arc legend NVNQVAM RETRORSVM, meaning 'Never Backwards', the motto of the duchy, curves around the upper field. Below the ground line, within a horizontal exergual division, the date in Roman numerals MDCCXXXIX appears, with the mintmaster's initial S beneath, followed by the legend EX AUR HERCINE INF, indicating the coin was struck from gold of the Lower Harz mines. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Charles I of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel was a duke whose reign was marked by chronic financial strain and an increasingly autocratic style of government that eventually triggered the Wolfenbüttel Capitulation crisis. The Hanoverian connection — Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel sat uncomfortably close in orbit to the British Crown via the House of Hanover — shaped much of the political calculus behind his treasury decisions throughout the late 1730s.
Ducats of this principality were struck in the fine .986 gold standard consistent with Holy Roman Empire ducat conventions, making them acceptable in trade well beyond Brunswick's borders. Welter 2703 distinguishes this emission from closely related types by die characteristics that casual inspection can easily miss.
