| Reverse description | Two large oval heraldic shields side by side — the Saxon electoral arms on the left and the Polish-Lithuanian arms on the right — each surmounted by a royal electoral crown, with the date appearing in the exergue beneath the shields. The surrounding legend reads SAC·ROM·IMP·ARCHI·ET ELECTOR in Latin capitals, referencing Augustus II's dignity as Arch-Marshal and Elector of the Holy Roman Empire. The overall composition is characteristic of the elaborate baroque heraldic style prevalent at the Dresden Mint in the early eighteenth century. |
