| Beschrijving keerzijde | The prancing horse of Brunswick-Lüneburg, the heraldic symbol of the House of Welf, depicted in high relief rearing up on its hind legs and facing left, set upon a grassy groundline. The motto EX ADVERSO DECVS arches around the upper portion of the coin, meaning 'Honor from Adversity.' Below the groundline the Roman numeral date MDCCXXXV (1735) is inscribed, with the denomination 2/3 and mintmaster's initials BI D appearing in the exergue beneath. The design is bold and well-executed in the Baroque tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Louis Rudolph ruled Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel from 1731 until his death in 1735, a reign so brief that his coinage series was never completed in full. The ⅔ Thaler denomination — effectively the Gulden in North German convention — was the workhorse of regional trade, pegged to the 1690 Leipzig Foot monetary standard that attempted to rationalize the chaotic multiplicity of German silver coinage after the Thirty Years' War's economic wreckage.
Louis Rudolph had previously ruled as Prince of Blankenburg, a smaller subdivision, before inheriting Wolfenbüttel. The mint at Zellerfeld struck these pieces.
