| Aversbeschreibung | The field is entirely occupied by a ten-line Latin commemorative inscription recording the signing of the marriage contract, surmounted at the top of the coin by an imperial orb. The text is arranged in horizontal lines across the full width of the flan, with the mint-master initials IGS and the Roman numeral date MDCCXIX appearing in the two lowermost lines. The coin exhibits a reeded border running along the full circumference. The composition is entirely typographic in character, with no figural elements other than the orb device above the inscription. |

Struck to commemorate the 1719 marriage of Electoral Prince Frederick August II to Maria Josepha, Archduchess of Austria — a dynastic union that required the Saxon Wettins to formally convert to Catholicism, as they had done a generation earlier when Frederick August I himself converted to secure the Polish crown in 1697. The marriage festivities in Dresden were among the most extravagant of the early eighteenth century, lasting several weeks and generating an entire series of commemorative coin issues across multiple denominations.
The Kahnt-Auktion reference places this squarely within the documented emission series for those celebrations.
