| Obverse description | Draped bust of Duke Louis Rudolph facing right, wearing a voluminous curled wig falling to the shoulders and a cuirass with decorative armor detailing visible at the truncation. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine engraving characteristic of early 18th-century German medallic art. The circumferential Latin legend reads LVDOVICVS RVDOLPHVS D G DVX BR ET LVNEB, identifying the ruler by name and title as Duke of Brunswick and Lüneburg by the grace of God. The field is otherwise unadorned, focusing full attention on the dignified effigy. |
