Aanvullende informatie

August II's half-dukat issues from Dresden present an immediate problem: the coin is denominated as a dukat — a gold denomination by every established convention — yet struck in silver. This anomaly reflects the fiscal disorder of the Great Northern War period, during which August II lost and then regained the Polish throne, and the Saxon-administered mints were operating under severe resource constraints. Dresden was minting for Polish circulation while Saxony's own monetary system was under strain from prolonged military expenditure.

Kopicki 11097 is among the rarer Dresden products of this reign, with surviving examples concentrated in Polish institutional collections rather than the western European market.
