| Aversbeschreibung | The leaping horse of Brunswick, the dynastic symbol of the House of Welf, is depicted in left profile within a beaded inner circle, its body rendered in a vigorous, animated stance with all four legs raised. The date appears in the exergue below the horse. The surrounding legend reads ANT ULR D G DUX BR ET LUNE, identifying the ruler Anthony Ulrich by name and title as Duke of Brunswick and Lüneburg. The legend is separated from the inner circle by a plain border, with a milled outer rim framing the entire design. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Anthony Ulrich ruled Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel for over five decades and spent much of his reign maneuvering between the great powers of Europe, eventually converting to Catholicism in 1709 — a move that scandalized Protestant northern Germany but secured dynastic alliances he considered essential. These small silver pieces were struck in the years just before that conversion, during the War of the Spanish Succession, when the principality's finances were under considerable strain from military commitments to the allied cause.
