| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped facing bust of Duke Frederick V wearing a ruff collar, set within an elaborate architectural frame decorated with foliate scrollwork; the frame is surmounted by a facing cherub with wings fully spread. The surrounding legend in Latin reads in abbreviated form across the field border. The portrait is rendered in a formal early Baroque style typical of large Brunswick multiple thalers of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick V of Brunswick-Lüneburg-Celle died in 1648, and his duchy spent the 1630s navigating the catastrophic middle years of the Thirty Years' War — Swedish forces occupied much of Lower Saxony, and the financial demands of sustaining alliances, ransoms, and mercenary contracts drove the production of large-denomination multiple thalers that could transfer significant value in single transactions. The 3-thaler format was never a circulation piece; it moved between treasuries, not pockets.
Welter 1406 is among the scarcer documented strikes from the Celle mint in this series, with surviving examples appearing infrequently at major auction.
