| Reverse description | The denomination 8 GUTE GROSCHEN is inscribed prominently across the upper field in three lines, flanked by floral rosette ornaments, with the date 1755 below, also accompanied by small star or rosette stops. Beneath the inscription, two crossed military banners or standards are depicted draped over a trophy of war spoils, with floral and scrollwork ornamentation at the center. The mint mark F appears at the base of the design, identifying the Magdeburg mint. The overall composition is characteristic of mid-18th-century Prussian coinage, combining bold denominational lettering with martial symbolism. |
