| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears a bold multi-line inscription in four lines reading '24 / MARIEN / GROSCH / V.FEIN SILB.' indicating the denomination and silver fineness, with three small decorative stars below. The date of issue appears at the lower left of the coin within the circular legend. The surrounding peripheral legend reads 'REMIGIO ALTISSIMI' distributed around the outer border, a pious Latin phrase meaning 'by the grace of the Most High'. A small star or rosette separates the beginning and end of the legend. The overall design is characteristic of late 17th-century German milled silver coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel's monetary output in the 1670s and 80s was shaped heavily by the Zinnaische Münzfuß of 1667, the North German minting convention that fixed the Thaler at 10½ Reichstaler per mark of silver. The 24 Mariengroschen occupied an awkward fractional position within this system — equal to one Reichstaler in local reckoning but not universally accepted at that rate across neighboring territories, which created persistent friction in cross-border trade along the Weser corridor.
Rudolph August ruled Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel alone until 1685, when his younger brother Anton Ulrich was elevated to co-duke — a partnership that would redefine the court's political ambitions entirely.
