| 背面描述 | A female allegorical figure, representing the soul or virtue of the deceased duchess, reclines upon billowing clouds in the upper field, her flowing drapery and outstretched arm rendered in the exuberant Baroque style. A ribbon scroll bearing the Latin motto DESERVISSE IVVAT arches across the upper portion of the field. Below the clouds, a highly detailed facade of a palatial baroque residence — identifiable as Schloss Wolfenbüttel — is depicted in accurate architectural perspective, with symmetrical wings, dormer windows, and decorative rooftop statuary. In the lower foreground, a ducal crown rests upon a cushion atop a stepped pedestal, symbolizing sovereign dignity. The composition as a whole forms a memento mori and apotheosis scene befitting a high-ranking commemorative issue. |

Anthony Ulrich ruled Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel for over four decades and spent much of that time locked in dynastic maneuvering with the rival Hanoverian line — a rivalry made permanent when George I of Hanover took the British throne in 1714, the year after Anthony Ulrich died. This ten-ducat piece was struck in 1704 as a memorial issue, a format the German principalities used to consolidate dynastic memory in precious metal at moments of political significance.
At thirty-five grams of .986 fine gold, multiples of this weight were among the most expensive objects a mint could produce, intended for presentation rather than circulation.
