| Reverse description | The elaborately detailed quartered arms of Brunswick-Lüneburg surmounted by an ornate Baroque helmet with a profusion of crests, including two prancing horses, a crowned lion, deer antlers, and a harp, all rendered in fine high relief. The multi-quartered shield displays the heraldic charges of the duchy including rampant lions, a crowned lion passant, a wheel, and an eagle, flanked by decorative acanthus scrollwork. The mint master's initials H·B appear to either side of the shield in the field. The date 1·6·8·5· is positioned in the upper field above the helm, and the motto SOLA BONA QUAE HONESTA arcs through the lower portion of the legend within a beaded border. |
