| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central shield displaying the ducal arms of Saxony — the barry with the crowned rampant lion and the Rautenkranz (rue wreath) bend — enclosed within a raised inner circle. Four smaller subsidiary shields of arms are arranged symmetrically in the angles around the central shield, representing the various territorial claims of the Albertinian line. The date appears at the end of the circumferential legend, which reads: NACH. DEM. ALTEN. SCHROT. VND. KORN., indicating the coin was struck to the old weight and fineness standard. |

George of Saxony — "the Bearded" — was among the most tenacious Catholic princes in the Empire during the Reformation's opening decades, and these guldengroschen were struck while he was actively suppressing Lutheran teaching in his territories. He attended the Diet of Augsburg in 1530 personally, opposing the Confession that would define Protestant doctrine for centuries. His line died with him in 1539, leaving no male heir, and the Albertinian lands passed to his Lutheran cousin Maurice — rendering George's confessional resistance immediately and permanently futile.
