| Reverse description | The reverse displays a large, elaborately quartered coat of arms of the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Güstrow, featuring the bull's head of Mecklenburg, the eagle of the Lordship of Rostock, and other heraldic quarterings, surmounted by a ducal crown. The date appears in the upper field flanking the shield. The encircling Latin legend HERRE. GOTT. VERLEI(CH). VNS. G(N)(A). — meaning 'Lord God, grant us grace' — runs between the beaded border and the inner field, reflecting the pious Protestant inscriptions common on North German Thalers of the late sixteenth century. |
