The oldest arms of the counts showed a lion until 1238. In 1239 the Nesselblatt appears on a seal of Count Johann I. The Nesselblatt also appears on the seals of other members of the family, including other branches of the family. The origin of the arms is not quite known. Due to its shape the figure was called a Nesselblatt. It is not used anywhere else unrelated to the Schaumburg family. It also appears in many Civic Heraldry in Holstein. The arms did not change during the many territorial changes of Holstein. | The oldest arms of the counts showed a lion until 1238. In 1239 the Nesselblatt appears on a seal of Count Johann I.
