Beschrijving voorzijde Bare-headed right-facing bust of King Anton of Saxony, rendered in high relief with finely detailed curly hair and a strong classical profile. The effigy is centered in the field, occupying the majority of the flan. The circumferential legend reads ANTON V.G.G. KOENIG VON SACHSEN, separated from the beaded border by a narrow flat rim. The engraving reflects the neoclassical style characteristic of the Dresden Mint in the early nineteenth century.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued to commemorate the prize awarded at the Dresden Agricultural Society exhibition of 1830, this is one of a category of Saxon award thalers struck not for circulation but for presentation — given in lieu of a medal to distinguished exhibitors. Anton I, who had assumed the Saxon throne only two years earlier following Friedrich August I's death, lent his name and authority to these agricultural premiums as part of a broader effort to modernize Saxony's rural economy during a period of considerable political unrest across the German states.

The 1830 issuance is particularly charged: the July Revolution in France detonated in the same year, triggering riots in Dresden itself that September and forcing constitutional concessions from the Saxon crown.
