Beschrijving voorzijde Central field features a large ornate Gothic letter 'F' surmounted by a crowned shield bearing the Schaumburg-Lippe arms, flanked by a palm frond to the left and a grain stalk to the right, with a small heraldic rosette to the lower right. A small oval countermark depicting a Tudor rose is applied over the upright of the 'F'. At the base of the design, a small lion passant appears within a wreath-like cartouche. The peripheral legend reads PER ASPERA AD ASTRA in Latin capitals, partially visible around the coin's rim.

Aanvullende informatie

Philip I of Schaumburg-Lippe ruled a territory so small and financially constrained that rather than striking original coinage in large quantities, the county routinely countermarked existing circulation pieces from neighboring states. This ⅔ Thaler bears the Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg countermark applied under Philip's authority — a pragmatic solution common among the smaller Westphalian and Lower Saxon territories struggling to assert monetary identity without the mint infrastructure to support it.

The KM#10 designation covers a wide bracket of dates, reflecting that countermarking was an ongoing administrative practice rather than a single mint event.
