正面描述	Central field bears the ducal Saxon arms — a quartered shield with barry and rampant lion — set within a pointed trilobe or Gothic cusped frame, itself enclosed within a beaded inner circle. Pellets flank the upper apex of the trilobe in place of the customary stars. A circular Latin legend surrounding the inner circle carries the titles and name of Elector August I of Saxony. The overall style is characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century Saxon hammered coinage.

附加信息	The Spitzgroschen denomination takes its name from the pointed oval shield — Spitz meaning pointed — that dominated Saxon groschen coinage in the mid-sixteenth century. August I came to power in 1553 following the humiliation of his brother Moritz, whose military gamble against Emperor Charles V had ended in Moritz's death at Sievershausen that same year. August inherited both the electorate and the task of stabilizing Saxon finances after years of costly warfare. Keil/Kahnt 104 is a well-documented type with modest die variety, though attribution between the 1553 and 1555 production years requires close attention to the mintmaster's mark.
