| Reverse description | A crowned, elaborate baroque cartouche bearing the complex quartered arms of the Duchy of Brunswick-Lüneburg occupies the center of the field. The mint officials' initials 'I.D.B.' appear divided across the design, flanking the shield. The surrounding Latin legend denotes the coin's standard and denomination, with the date 1768 appearing below, flanked by decorative lozenge stops. The overall composition is typical of late-18th-century German territorial coinage, with dense heraldic detail executed in fine relief. |
