| Beschrijving voorzijde | Elaborately mantled and crowned quartered shield of arms, displaying the quarters of Holstein-Schaumburg-Pinneberg, surmounted by a crest of three feathered plumes issuing from a coronet with two wild men as supporters at either side, all set within ornate Baroque strapwork and foliate cartouche. The circular Latin legend reads around the periphery within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ernest III ruled Schaumburg from 1601 until his death in 1622, presiding over a county whose silver coinage carried outsized ambition relative to its modest territorial footprint. The double thaler denomination — demanding nearly 58 grams of fine silver per piece — was as much a diplomatic instrument as a monetary one, circulated among princes and used in payments where single thalers would have seemed insufficient to the occasion.
Schaumburg's mint rights were a persistent source of friction with neighboring territories throughout this period. Production of large-module pieces like this double thaler was intermittent rather than sustained.
