| Beschrijving voorzijde | Elaborately mantled and helmeted achievement of arms of Ernest August, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg and Bishop of Osnabrück, occupying the central field. The quartered shield displays the heraldic charges of the constituent territories — including lions passant, a horse, and other regional emblems — surmounted by multiple crested helms with elaborate lambrequins and coronets. The mintmaster's initials H·B appear flanking the shield at mid-field. The circumferential Latin legend, interrupted by the date 1691, identifies the ruler and his titles. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of Saint Andrew, bearded and nimbed with a circular halo, depicted facing three-quarters to the left, draped in flowing robes. He embraces a large Latin cross held diagonally before him, the emblem of his martyrdom. The field is otherwise plain, with the circumferential Latin legend SANCT ANDREAS REVIVISCENS ('Saint Andrew reviving') divided across the upper portion of the coin, referencing the Harz mining district's renewed productivity as a symbolic resurrection. |

Ernest August secured the electorship of Hanover in 1692 — this thaler was struck just one year prior, at a moment when his political lobbying at the imperial court was reaching its peak. The "Ausbeute" designation marks it as a mining yield coin, produced directly from silver extracted from the Harz mountain mines, a practice that tied the coinage explicitly to the duke's territorial revenues and served as a pointed demonstration of economic control over those mineral rights.
Welter 1948 distinguishes several die combinations for this type; the Müseler reference narrows this example to a specific subvariety among them.
