Obverse description Central shield bearing the crowned Saxony arms — a barry of ten or and sable with a crancelin in bend — displayed between two palm or laurel branches flanking the sides of the coin. The abbreviated legend 'F.S.E. L.M.' appears above the crowned shield, divided by the crown, rendered in Latin script. The overall composition is characteristic of small German States coinage of the early eighteenth century, with the heraldic shield as the dominant design element occupying the full field.

Obverse lettering F.S.E. L.M.
Reverse description A four-line inscription fills the central field, presenting the denomination and date in a clear, upright Roman typeface. The numeral 'III' occupies the uppermost line, flanked on either side by a floral ornament, followed by 'HELLER' on the second line, the date '1702' on the third line, and the engraver's initials 'C·M·' on the fourth and lowest line. The design is plain and functional, with no border legend, relying entirely on the central text arrangement to convey the coin's identity and date of issue.
