| Beschrijving keerzijde | A small ornate shield displaying a sevenfold quartered coat of arms with a central escutcheon bearing the Lübeck cross, superimposed upon a crossed episcopal sword and crozier in saltire. The heraldic composition is flanked on either side by two palm branches, symbolic of ecclesiastical dignity. The date 1690 appears within the circumferential legend. The overall design is executed in the formal heraldic tradition typical of late 17th-century north German ecclesiastical coinage, with a toothed border encircling the reverse field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
August Frederick held the Bishopric of Lübeck as a Protestant administrator — the see had been secularized under the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, leaving it governed by a succession of Holstein-Gottorp princes rather than Catholic clergy. The ⅔ Thaler denomination was a creature of the Reichsmünzfuß debates of the late seventeenth century, a north German convention that attempted to rationalize silver coinage against the species thaler standard. The two-year window of this issue, 1689–1690, coincides almost exactly with the outbreak of the Nine Years' War, when bullion flows across the Holy Roman Empire were already under strain.
