Beschrijving voorzijde Within a beaded border, a royal crown surmounts a fourteen-line Latin epitaph inscription filling the entire field. The text, set in varying letter sizes for emphasis, commemorates Anna Sophia, Princess of Denmark and Electoral widow of Saxony, recording her birth at Flensburg on 1 September 1641 and her death at Lichtenburg on 1 July 1717. The dedication is issued in the name of Frederick Augustus, King of Poland and Elector of Saxony, to his most beloved mother. The legend concludes with the phrase MONUMENTUM PERENNE and the abbreviation F.F., indicating this coin was struck as a permanent memorial. The entire composition is executed in the formal memorial tablet style characteristic of early eighteenth-century Saxon commemorative coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde A fully-rigged three-masted sailing ship navigates open seas at the center of the field, rendered in fine engraved detail with billowing sails and waves below. A distant shoreline or harbor fortification is visible in the left background, reinforcing the allegorical theme of a soul guided safely to port. The legend DEO DUCE arcs above in the upper field, while PORTUM INVENIT is divided across the lower field on either side of a rectangular cartouche bearing the denomination 2/3. The mint master's initials I.G.S. appear in the exergue below the cartouche. The composition serves as a metaphor for the deceased's virtuous life and safe arrival in the afterlife under divine guidance.
