| 背面描述 | A radiant sun shining down upon a landscape scene, symbolising the light of the Reformation illuminating the world. The curved legend VI DISVTIT appears above the central device, referencing the dispersal of darkness by evangelical truth. The fractional value 1/8 is displayed in an oval cartouche above the exergue, which contains a two-line inscription including the Roman numeral date MDCCXVII commemorating the bicentenary of the Lutheran Reformation. The overall composition reflects the devotional and commemorative character typical of early 18th-century German Reformation Jubilee coinage. |

The 1717 Reformation bicentenary triggered one of the largest coordinated commemorative coin programs in the history of the German states. Dozens of Protestant territories issued pieces that year, each positioning their ruling house as a faithful steward of Luther's legacy — a pointed political statement in a Holy Roman Empire still fractured along confessional lines a century after the Thirty Years' War. Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg under Frederick II was a particularly devout Lutheran court, and participation was never merely ceremonial.
Frederick II died just two years later in 1719, making his commemorative issues a short window within an already minor ducal series.
