The surrounding legend, composed of dot-separated initials in Latin script, runs along the upper periphery of the coin, referencing the title of Duke George William of Brunswick-Lüneburg-Celle.

Reverse description The reverse presents a four-line inscription in bold upright Latin lettering occupying the central field, stating the denomination and monetary designation as Scheidemünze (small change currency). The large fractional numeral '1 1/2' dominates the upper portion of the field, flanked on either side by foliate ornamental sprigs. Below the denomination legend, a small decorative rosette or floral stop appears at the base of the field, serving as a terminal ornament. The coin's milled border frames the entire composition.
