| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of Saint Andrew standing facing slightly left, depicted as an elderly bearded apostle with a halo, draped in flowing robes and cloak. He holds the saltire cross diagonally before him with both hands, the base of the cross resting at his feet. The composition is rendered in high relief with fine baroque drapery detail. The circular Latin legend SANCT ANDREAS REVIVISCENS encircles the figure within a reeded border, the inscription reading continuously around the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
By 1705, George I — then still Elector of Hanover — was already the designated heir to the British throne under the Act of Settlement of 1701, which had bypassed over fifty closer Catholic claimants to secure a Protestant succession. He would not actually reach London until 1714, following Anne's death. Coins struck in these intervening years occupy an odd transitional moment: issued by a German principality, yet bearing the portrait of a man already promised to another crown.
The one-third thaler denomination was peculiar to the northern German states and saw little use outside regional trade circuits.
