Interesting fact
The coin features an image of a wolf on its reverse side, which is a nod to the name of the principality, "Wolfenbüttel," which means "wolf's brook" in German. The wolf was also a symbol of strength and bravery in medieval times, reflecting the principality's desire to project those qualities through its currency.
