The shield features multiple quarterings including lions and a lozengy (diamond-pattern) field, consistent with the dynastic arms of the Löwenstein-Wertheim line. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with a continuous Latin legend occupying the surrounding border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John Theodore of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort ruled a small but administratively distinct Rhenish county during the opening years of the Thirty Years' War, a conflict that devastated silver circulation across the German states and prompted numerous minor lords to assert monetary rights while imperial authority was distracted. This 1625 issue falls squarely in that window — the Battle of White Mountain had just reshuffled Catholic and Protestant territorial claims, and Löwenstein, nominally Catholic, was navigating the resulting political realignments with some care.
The Rochefort branch held coinage rights separately from Löwenstein-Wertheim-Virneburg, a distinction that matters for attribution — pieces are occasionally miscatalogued between the two lines.
