This coin was minted during the time of the reign of George II (King of England) as the Duke of Brunswick-Luneburg. The design is very simple, with no reference to the the ruling class, but only including the date, and denomination information. George II's full style was "George the Second, by the Grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland, Defender of the Faith, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, Archtreasurer and Prince-Elector of the Holy Roman Empire". Only 9 years after the issue of this coin, George II would die, leaving the titles and throne to his grandson, George III of England.
