The shield is flanked by ornate baroque cartouche scrollwork. The date 1698 is divided at the base of the composition, with the circular Latin legend surrounding the entire design. |

| Reverse description | The traditional heraldic wild man (Wilder Mann) of Brunswick stands facing, depicted as a hirsute, bearded figure wreathed in foliage at the head and loins, grasping an uprooted tree trunk in his left hand and resting his right hand on his hip. He stands upon a ground strewn with stylized fir trees. The engraver's initials R·B appear to the right of the figure in the field. The motto legend IN RECTO DECUS arcs around the upper portion of the design. |
