| Reverse description | A detailed bird's-eye perspective view of the Wilhelmsburg palace complex, with long radiating rays of sunlight descending from the upper right of the field, symbolizing divine favor. Gothic and Latin lettering appears in multiple registers surrounding and within the design, commemorating the duke's birthday and the founding anniversary. The architectural rendering of the palace is rendered in fine engraved detail characteristic of German Baroque commemorative coinage. The Roman numeral date MDCCXVII appears prominently as part of the reverse legend. |
