| Reversbeschreibung | Two adjacent heraldic shields displayed side by side in the field: the dexter shield bearing the barry with a bend of ducal Saxony (the Rautenkranz), and the sinister shield bearing the arms of Meissen. Above the junction of the two shields appears the numeral 7 over 2, serving as a mintmaster's or denominational mark, with a trefoil (shamrock) device interposed between the shields. The composition is contained within a beaded border and reflects the standard heraldic conventions of Albertinian Saxon small coinage of the early sixteenth century. |

George the Bearded — Duke of Albertine Saxony from 1500 to 1539 — was one of the most tenacious Catholic princes in the Empire, resisting Lutheran reform with a consistency that set him apart from nearly every neighboring ruler. His territories remained officially Catholic throughout his reign despite enormous pressure, including direct confrontation with Luther himself. Small silver issues like this Dreier circulated through a Saxony that was administratively and confessionally distinct from the Ernestine lands just across the border.
George died without a surviving male heir in 1539. Within weeks, his brother Heinrich — a Lutheran — reversed every religious policy George had spent decades defending.
