| Reverse description | The conjoined cipher of Magdalena Sibylla (MSC) is prominently displayed in the centre of the field, surmounted by the electoral bonnet (Kurhutkrone) of Saxony. The monogram is framed on either side by crossed palm and bay laurel branches, symbolising honour and victory. The mint initials DO appear in the field, referencing the Dresden mint master. The overall composition is characteristic of the ornate heraldic medallic style of the late seventeenth-century Saxon court. |
