| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field depicts the Stolberg stag passant to the right, standing beside a tall column or post from which two banners fly, the whole device mounted on a small pedestal bearing the letter 'S'. Below the central device, a cartouche displays the fractional denomination '1/6'. A circular Latin legend surrounds the design, indicating the fineness standard of eighty pieces to the Cologne Mark along with the date 1763. The composition is rendered in a crisp, high-relief baroque style typical of eighteenth-century German territorial coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Stolberg-Stolberg's joint coinage under Frederick Botho and Charles Louis reflects the persistent subdivision of the Stolberg territories across multiple co-ruling lines — a dynastic fragmentation that made coherent monetary policy nearly impossible and produced a bewildering array of fractional issues in the 1760s. The mint mark 'C' here denotes Clausthal, operating under contract during a period when the county lacked its own sustained minting infrastructure.
The Seven Years' War had only just concluded when these pieces were struck, and the small silver fractions filling local circulation were doing real economic work in a region still absorbing the financial strain of wartime requisitions.
