| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick Augustus II ruled Saxony while simultaneously holding the Polish throne as Augustus III — a dual role that strained electoral finances considerably and drove persistent debasement of small silver denominations through the 1730s and 40s. This groschen belongs to that fiscally pressured output, struck at a point when Saxony's mints were working hard to meet the demands of two courts.
The Dresden and Leipzig mints both produced groschen under this reign; confirming which facility struck a given piece requires checking the mintmaster's initials present on the die.
