The left shield bears the Polish eagle and Lithuanian horseman quartered with other dynastic arms, while the right shield displays the Saxon barry with the Rautenkranz (rue crown) diagonal and additional quartered arms of the Wettin territories. The mint master's initials FWoF appear in the lower field beneath the shields, with the year of issue inscribed to the left. The circular legend SAC. ROM. IMP. ARCHIM. ET ELECTOR. runs along the rim, denoting Frederick August's dignity as Arch-Marshal and Elector of the Holy Roman Empire.
