Beschrijving voorzijde Central device depicting the dynastic arms of Waldeck-Pyrmont set upon the trunk of a tall palm tree, its fronds spreading broadly across the field, the tree rooted in stylized ground at the base. The quartered shield, bearing the characteristic Waldeck and Pyrmont charges, is affixed to the mid-section of the trunk. A circular Latin legend surrounds the design within a raised rim, reading: PALMA SUB PONDERE CRESCIT, the motto meaning 'The palm grows under its burden.'

Aanvullende informatie

Waldeck-Pyrmont was among the smallest sovereign states to exercise minting rights in the German confederation, and by the 1820s it was doing so largely as an assertion of princely privilege rather than economic necessity. The Kronenthaler itself was a trade coin standard derived from the Austrian Maria Theresa convention, widely circulated across central Europe and the Low Countries precisely because merchants trusted its consistent silver content.

George Frederick Henry ruled Waldeck-Pyrmont from 1813 until his death in 1845. The principality's population barely exceeded 50,000 at the time of this striking.
