| Obverse description | The arms of Brunswick, a rearing horse facing left, occupies the central field in bold relief. The denomination mark '1/6' appears in an oval cartouche at the base of the design beneath the horse. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery within a beaded border, referencing the joint rule of the two co-dukes. The overall style is typical of late 17th-century German milled coinage, with bold lettering and a strongly modelled heraldic horse. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a four-line central inscription within a raised inner circle, stating the denomination as VI MARIEN GROSCH, with the mintmaster's initials HC x H below. The surrounding circular legend, separated by a raised ring, reads FURSTL BRUNS LUNEB MUNTZ and the date 1694, identifying the coin as a princely Brunswick-Lüneburg issue. The design is plain and functional, characteristic of subsidiary silver coinage of the period. |
