| Beschrijving keerzijde | The upper portion of the reverse displays the Hebrew Tetragrammaton (יהוה, 'Jehovah') set within radiating sunbeams emanating from behind the inscription, evoking divine authority. Below, a five-line Latin commemorative inscription occupies the entire field, referencing the burning of the ducal court in 1618 and its restoration confirmed by the Peace of Westphalia in 1651. The inscription is rendered in bold capital letters within a plain field, bounded by a beaded rim. The design commemorates the rebuilding of the Weimar court destroyed during the Thirty Years' War. |

William IV ruled Saxe-Weimar during the immediate aftermath of the Thirty Years' War, a period in which the German states were scrambling to reassert economic function after decades of monetary chaos, debased coinage, and occupying armies draining bullion reserves. The 1/24 Thaler denomination — the Groschen — was the workhorse fraction of the Reichstaler system codified at the Leipzig Convention of 1566, and small duchies like Saxe-Weimar relied on it heavily for local commerce when larger denominations were impractical.
William died in 1662, and this issue spans only three years of his reign, likely reflecting a specific minting contract or bullion availability rather than a continuous program.
