| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two ornate crowned and quartered coats of arms displayed side by side at center — the Saxon electoral arms on the left and the Polish-Lithuanian arms on the right — both surmounted by royal crowns and separated by a small electoral sword. The date 1756 appears in the field above between the two shields. A continuous Latin legend encircles the reverse, citing the ruler's full royal and electoral titles. The heraldic design is executed in the elaborate baroque style typical of Dresden mint production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
August III ruled the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth as an absentee king, spending the bulk of his reign in Dresden rather than Warsaw, and it was at the Dresden mint that this talar was produced — a pointed illustration of where his actual loyalties and administrative apparatus sat. Saxon minting infrastructure was routinely pressed into service for Polish coinage throughout his reign, a practical arrangement that suited a monarch who found Saxony considerably more congenial than his elective kingdom.
Kopicki 11463 is among the later Dresden-struck talers of the type, issued just three years before the Seven Years' War would devastate Saxon finances and effectively end coherent minting operations in Dresden for several years.
