| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned Saxon coat of arms occupies the central field, displaying the barry-with-crancelin shield characteristic of the House of Wettin, rendered in fine engraved detail. A royal crown surmounts the shield. The date is divided on either side of the shield, with 18 to the left and 25 (or the relevant year) to the right. The mintmaster's initials I.G.S. appear in the lower exergue. A beaded border frames the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick August I spent much of his reign navigating the aftermath of a catastrophic political miscalculation — Saxony had allied with Napoleon at Leipzig in 1813, and the subsequent Congress of Vienna stripped the kingdom of roughly half its territory as punishment, ceding large swaths of land to Prussia. The ducats issued under his remaining reign were produced by a kingdom both diminished in geography and, by the mid-1820s, politically anxious about the liberal agitation spreading through the German states.
The issue ran only three years before his death in May 1827 ended the line.
