Reverse description Detailed bird's-eye panoramic view of the Beschert Glück silver mine near Freiberg, Saxony, depicting mine buildings, headframes, and associated structures set within a rocky landscape. A two-line legend in the lower field reads KAM IN AUSBEUTE IM / QUARTAL CRUCIS 1786, with the fineness statement 1/5 MARCK FEIN SILBER below. The upper legend arcs around the rim identifying the mine. The scene is rendered with meticulous engraving characteristic of Saxon Ausbeute (mining dividend) coinage of the period.
