Obverse description Within a lobed oval cartouche at center, a four-line inscription reading GOTTES / FREUNDT / DER PFAFFEN / FEINDT ('Friend of God, Enemy of Priests'), the so-called Pfaffenfeind motto. The surrounding circular legend bears the titles of Administrator Christian of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel in Latin, reading CHRISTIAN HERTZ ZV BRAVNS G W V LVNB NB, separated by rosette stops. The overall design is plain and declaratory in character, reflecting the Protestant militancy of the issuer.
