| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicts the Lübeck city arms: a crowned shield bearing an eagle displayed, supported by crossed elements, with a mural crown above. The denomination numeral '2' appears prominently at the centre of the shield. A circumferential Latin legend encircles the design, with the date 1727 integrated into the lower portion of the field. The inscription references the coin as Lübeck courant money, rendered in multi-line format within the shield area. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lübeck's billon schilling issues of the early eighteenth century reflect the city's stubborn insistence on monetary independence long after its commercial dominance had faded. Once the leading power of the Hanseatic League, by 1727 Lübeck was a city of roughly 25,000 people clinging to free imperial city status — and the right to strike its own coinage was one of the few tangible expressions of that autonomy still exercised in practice.
KM#142 falls within a series produced under tight bullion constraints, the .437 fineness itself a concession to the economic pressures that had been grinding down Lübeck's silver reserves since the Thirty Years' War.
