| 表面の銘文 | D G AVGVSTVS III REX POL M D L R PR D S & EL |
| 裏面の説明 | Central shield bearing the arms of the City of Gdańsk — two crosses above a single cross on a divided field, surmounted by a royal crown — flanked by two rampant lions acting as heraldic supporters, each facing inward toward the escutcheon. Above the shield, a crested helmet with mantling is visible. The denomination VI appears in the upper field between the lions, the mint officials' initials R and E flank the lower shield, and the date 1760 is struck in the exergue below. The full circular Latin legend identifying the Gdańsk civic coinage runs in the outer border. |

The szóstak — a six-groschen piece — was not a denomination Gdańsk normally produced in gold. This 1760 striking almost certainly belongs to a small run of presentation pieces made for court distribution or diplomatic gift-giving, a practice August III's Saxon administration pursued with some regularity. By 1760, August III had less than three years left to reign, and the political friction between the Saxon court and the Polish nobility was already making normal coinage administration difficult.
Kopicki 7750 and KM#PnA18 both confirm pattern status. No regular gold szóstak for Gdańsk is recorded from this reign.
