Obverse description Armored equestrian effigy of Augustus II the Strong (Friedrich August I, Elector of Saxony and King of Poland) facing right, depicted as a mounted ruler in full armor riding a rearing horse. The ruler carries a baton or scepter, symbolizing royal and imperial authority. The composition fills the central field with considerable dynamism, rendered in the baroque artistic style characteristic of early eighteenth-century Saxon coinage. The field surrounding the equestrian figure is plain, with the circumferential legend absent from the obverse face on this pattern issue.
