| Reversbeschreibung | Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the central field, with a globus cruciger (orb) on the breast, rendered in the bold hammered style characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century German Thalers. A circular Latin legend surrounds the eagle bearing the abbreviated titles of Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian II. The design is enclosed within a beaded border that follows the hexagonal shape of the flan, with the imperial crown prominently positioned above the eagle's two heads. |

Königstein's comital line died out in 1581 when Philip II of Stolberg-Königstein died without heirs, ending independent coinage from the county entirely. This 1569 thaler was struck just over a decade before that extinction, making surviving pieces from Louis II's tenure documents of a jurisdiction on its way out. Davenport's attribution places it firmly within the broader Rhenish thaler tradition, but Königstein's output was always modest — the county's mining and minting rights were more symbolic assertion than economic engine.
