The shield is divided into multiple quarters displaying the arms of the various territories under the duke's rule, including lions, horses, and other heraldic charges. The circumferential legend CHRISTIANUS D:G: DUX BRUNSVIC: ET LUNEB: runs along the outer border, identifying the issuer as Christian, by the Grace of God Duke of Brunswick and Lüneburg.

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Christian of Minden administered the diocese as a Lutheran bishop — one of the Protestant administrators who held Catholic sees following the Reformation settlement of the Peace of Augsburg. His long tenure coincided almost exactly with the Thirty Years' War, and large-denomination gold multiples of this kind were not circulation currency; they were diplomatic gifts, presentation pieces, and portable wealth for a ruling house navigating one of the most destructive conflicts in European history.
Fr#541 is a recognized rarity in Friedberg. Few examples are documented, which is unsurprising — pieces of this weight were melted or hoarded rather than spent.
