nginx ssl reverse proxy setup

Hi guys
I am attempting to setup a reverse proxy with 2 vps servers using letsencrypt and am a bit confused as to the proper route to take to accomplish this.

Server1
nginx setup with domain and letsencrypt ssl certificate

Server2
no domain configured or ssl yet just LEMP

what is the best way to implement the SSL into the mix?
do i need to configure my domain on both servers with SSL using the same cert or just the front proxy server?
How do i setup the domain to work on both servers or can i just use the server2 ip?

location @proxy {
proxy_pass https://server2ip;

thanks in advance for any help.
