| Reverse description | Large quartered coat of arms of the Duchy of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, surmounted by an elaborate crowned helmet with mantling and multiple crests, supported by rampant lions as shield-bearers to either side. The shield displays the multiple heraldic quarterings of the Brunswick and Wolfenbüttel territories, rendered in fine detail characteristic of late sixteenth-century German die engraving. The peripheral Latin legend CONSUMOR UT PRO PATRIA, meaning 'I am consumed for the fatherland,' encircles the composition within a beaded border. |
