| Obverse description | Draped and armored bust of Duke John Frederick of Brunswick-Lüneburg facing right, wearing a long flowing allonge wig with voluminous curls cascading over his shoulders, his cuirass ornamented with decorative beading at the neckline. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the Baroque portrait style characteristic of late seventeenth-century German coinage. The encircling Latin legend reads IOHAN FRIDER : D : G : DUX BR : ET LU., identifying the ruler by name and title. The coin's milled border frames the design with a fine toothed rim. |
