Reverse description The traditional Brunswick wildman (Wilder Mann) stands facing, depicted as a nude figure wearing a crown of leaves, his left hand resting on his hip and his right hand grasping an uprooted pine tree at his side, its foliage extending upward to the right. The figure stands on a ground line, serving as the long-standing heraldic emblem of the House of Brunswick. The circular Latin motto NUNQUAM RETRORSUM — meaning 'Never Backward' — arches around the upper and right periphery of the field, while the numeral 2, indicating the denomination, appears at the lower left.
