| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears a simplified rendition of the Hanau-Münzenberg heraldic shield, featuring a chevron motif within an outlined escutcheon form. The design is struck on a small, irregular flan with no surrounding legend. The field shows the characteristic roughness of hammered technique, with the shield device occupying the centre of the coin. No beaded border or additional ornamental elements are clearly discernible on this face. The reverse closely mirrors the obverse in composition, consistent with the uniface or double-shield Pfennig type of the era. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip Louis II ruled Hanau-Münzenberg from 1580 until his death in 1612, presiding over a county whose monetary output was modest but consistent with the fragmented coinage rights exercised by dozens of minor Rhenish and Franconian lords under the Holy Roman Empire. At 0.28 g of silver, this pfennig sits at the absolute lower threshold of practical silver coinage — a denomination that by 1603 was already economically marginal, with larger trade coins like the Thaler dominating commercial transactions.
KM#5 is among the earlier documented strikes attributed to his reign.
