Beschrijving keerzijde Elaborately rendered quartered coat of arms of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, surmounted by multiple crested helmets adorned with mantling and elaborate heraldic cimiers, including the ducal horse atop the central crest. Two wild men (Salvator figures) flank the shield as supporters, standing amid dense foliate ornament. The date 1618 appears at the top of the field within the legend, which reads ANNO · DOMINI · 1618 · DEO · ET · PATRIAE around the full circumference within a beaded border. The reverse displays the high-relief workmanship typical of large Löser multiples produced in the Duchy of Brunswick.

Aanvullende informatie

Frederick Ulrich ruled Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel from 1613 until his death in 1634, and his reign was marked by administrative disorder and the catastrophic intrusions of the Thirty Years' War — which broke out the very year this Löser was struck. These large multiple-thaler presentation pieces were never intended for commerce; they functioned as gifts, diplomatic tokens, and instruments of dynastic display, produced in small numbers at the ducal mint.

The 1618 date places this piece at the opening salvo of a conflict that would devastate Lower Saxony within a decade.
