| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed bust of King Anton of Saxony facing right, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail typical of early 19th-century German coinage. The effigy displays the aged features of the monarch with naturalistic treatment of hair and facial structure. The circular legend surrounds the bust, reading ANTON V. G. G. KOENIG VON SACHSEN, separated from the portrait by a plain field. The rim is defined by a continuous beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Anthony of Saxony came to the throne in 1827 at the age of seventy, having spent decades as a secondary figure in the Dresden court while his brother Frederick Augustus I ruled. His reign coincided with mounting constitutional pressure across the German states, culminating in Saxony's liberal constitution of 1831 — pushed through partly because Anthony, already in his mid-seventies, lacked the political will to resist it. The gold 10 Thaler issues of his reign were struck in relatively modest quantities across a seven-year window that ended with his death in 1836.
The .902 fineness reflects the standard adopted for Saxon gold coinage under the Conventions Münzfuss, the monetary agreement governing multi-state German coinage by weight parity.
