Hi Nando.
Indeed, the only seven pearl coronet I could find was:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronet

From Wiki:

"The Holy Roman Empire, and consequently its successor states – Austria, Germany and others – had a system very similar to that of the British, although the design varied.
The normal Adelskrone for lower nobility ("Laubkrone") is a golden ring with pearls and precious stones that features eight tines of which typically only five are visible. Of these, the central and outer tines are normally leaves, whereas the others are headed by pearls. In the southern states of Bavaria and Württemberg quite often all tines are headed by pearls.
The Freiherrnkrone (baron's coronet) shows seven tines with pearls."
