| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned and helmeted arms of Ducal Saxony are depicted centrally, featuring the barry of Thuringia and the crowned lion of Meissen. A mint official's letter appears in the upper right field, serving as a privy mark to identify the responsible mint master. The overall composition is characteristic of the small hammered billon coinage of mid-sixteenth-century Saxony. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Ernestinian Wettins were deeply embedded in the Lutheran Reformation — John Frederick the Magnanimous was Luther's principal secular protector, and the Ernestine lands functioned as the financial and political backbone of the Protestant cause through the Schmalkaldic War. This joint coinage with his son Maurice dates precisely to that conflict's buildup and collapse, ending the year John Frederick lost the Battle of Mühlberg to Emperor Charles V and forfeited the electoral dignity to the Albertine branch entirely.
