The surrounding legend DUX: SAX S:R:I: ARCH: ET ELECT: identifies the ruler as Duke of Saxony, Arch-Marshal of the Holy Roman Empire, and Elector. The overall composition is characteristic of the formal Baroque numismatic style prevalent in the Saxon electoral mint issues of the early eighteenth century. |
