Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse features a tall, slender cypress tree rising prominently from a low horizontal ground line at the centre of the field, rendered in high relief as a symbol of mourning and eternal life. To the left and right of the cypress, two symmetrical triangular arrangements of small heart-shaped motifs flank the central device, representing the innumerable grieving hearts of the mourning populace. The words TOT to the left and CORDA to the right appear in the mid-field flanking the cypress trunk. The circular legend QVOT FOLIA TOT CORDA LVGENT, meaning 'As many leaves, so many hearts mourn,' is distributed around the periphery, with QVOT FOLIA in the upper arc and LVGENT at the base. The border is defined by a continuous milled graining consistent with the obverse.

Aanvullende informatie

August II ("the Strong") ruled Poland-Lithuania as an elected king while simultaneously holding Saxony as Elector — a dual position that created persistent friction with the Sejm and left royal finances perpetually entangled between Dresden and Warsaw. The 2/3 Thaler denomination was a Saxon convention, not a Polish one, and its appearance in Polish royal coinage reflects exactly that dynastic awkwardness: coins struck at Dresden for a Polish king, denominated in a German fractional system that had little natural footing in Commonwealth monetary practice.

Kopicki 11131 is among the later strikes of August II's reign, issued just a year before his death in 1733.
