| Obverse description | Central field bears the interlaced crowned cypher 'GW' (Georg Wilhelm) surmounted by an ornate electoral crown with elaborate foliate decoration. The mint date appears above the crown within the legend. The surrounding circular legend, reading in Latin abbreviation, identifies the issuing authority of Brunswick-Lüneburg and the mint, separated by pellets. The monogram is rendered in a bold, intertwined calligraphic style typical of mid-17th century German coinage. |
