| Beschrijving voorzijde | Unadorned truncated bust of Frederick II (the Great) facing right, depicted without laurel or diadem in the neoclassical style, with naturalistically rendered curled hair tied at the nape. The effigy is modestly scaled within the field, with the truncation showing the draped coat collar. The circumferential Latin legend reads FRIDERICVS BORVSSORVM REX, distributed evenly around the upper and lateral fields. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 8 Gute Groschen denomination was a workhorse of Prussian circulation coinage, distinct from the parade of Thaler-sized issues that tend to attract collector attention. Frederick II inherited a Prussian mint system already rationalized by his father but pushed coin production to new extremes during the Seven Years' War — though 1753 precedes that conflict, it falls squarely within his aggressive early monetary consolidation of Silesian territories seized in 1740.
Kluge's attribution as FrII#83b indicates a die variant within the type, worth checking against the obverse legend spacing and the specific mintmaster's privy mark.
