Reverse description The entire field within the beaded inner circle is occupied by a five-line German devotional and polemical inscription in bold capital letters reading GOTTES / FREUNDT / DER / PFAFFEN / FEINDT ('Friend of God, Enemy of Priests'), a celebrated Protestant war motto of Christian of Brunswick. The circular peripheral legend, separated from the central inscription by a beaded border, carries the administrator's title in abbreviated Latin. A small six-petalled rosette serves as a stop at the head of the legend.
