| Reverse description | The denomination 2 GROSCHEN is prominently struck in two bold lines across the centre of the field, with the year of issue below in large numerals. The circular legend distributed around the periphery reads SCHEIDE-MÜNZE at the top and 15 EINEN THALER at the bottom, indicating the coin's fractional value within the Thaler system. The overall design is stark and utilitarian, consistent with German Scheidemünze (small change) coinage of the period. |
