Beschrijving voorzijde Central field dominated by a tall obelisk or columnar monument, upon which is affixed an oval cartouche bearing the crowned monogram of Elector John George II, flanked by the vertical inscription SURSUM DEORSUM on the shaft. To the left, an open Bible surmounted by an electoral crown, its pages depicting a serpent and the Crucifixion; to the right, a crowned urn or chalice entwined with a laurel wreath and crossed by a sword. Above, a radiant sun-burst emanates from an oval glory containing a Hebrew divine name (Tetragrammaton), with a dove in flight below representing the Holy Spirit. The peripheral legend reads PRO FIDE ET PATRIA, separated by floral sprigs in the lower field.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse bears an entirely epigraphic composition in eleven lines of bold Roman capital lettering filling the field, commemorating the laying of the foundation stone of the chapel at Moritzburg Castle by Elector John George II of Saxony. A small crowned electoral monogram device appears at the top of the field above the text. The inscription records the inauguration date as 1 November 1661 in Roman numerals M.DC.LXI., with Latin abbreviations and punctuation separating each line. The border is plain with a toothed inner rim, and no figurative devices appear aside from the monogram at the apex.
