正面描述	Equestrian portrait of Frederick August I in right profile, depicted as a crowned and armored ruler wearing a flowing mantle, mounted on a rearing horse rendered in high relief. The elector holds a baton in his right hand, conveying sovereign authority. Beneath the horse's hooves appears an ornate heraldic shield bearing the quartered arms of Electoral Saxony. The coin's broad flan and deeply struck relief reflect the high artistic standards of the Dresden Mint under engraver Johann Lorenz Holland. The circumference is bounded by a finely milled border.

附加信息	Frederick Augustus I of Saxony held the Vicariat twice — in 1711 following the death of Emperor Joseph I, and again in 1740. The 1711 issue marks the first occasion, when as Elector of Saxony he exercised the ancient right of the Saxon Elector to govern the Holy Roman Empire in the interregnum before Charles VI was elected. Vicariate coinages were explicitly commemorative and ceremonial, struck to assert and publicize that constitutional privilege rather than to circulate. Joseph I died of smallpox on April 17, 1711, triggering the regency. The interregnum lasted less than a year, but Saxon mints moved quickly to capitalize on the moment.
