| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large, dramatic scene depicting the rampant Hanoverian horse leaping to the left across an expansive mining landscape, referencing the celebrated Harz silver mines that provided the metal for these coins. Below the horse, workers are shown engaged in various mining activities including ore extraction and processing, with mine shaft structures, sluices, and ancillary buildings rendered in fine detail. A hand issuing from clouds at the upper left holds an olive branch above the horse. The reverse legend DEO ET PATRIAE (To God and the Fatherland) appears in the outer field, enclosed within a beaded border. |
