A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy along the rim. The portrait is rendered in the baroque style typical of early 18th-century Saxon-Polish coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Augustus II — Elector of Saxony ruling Poland under permanent military duress — struck these pieces during the most chaotic stretch of the Great Northern War. By 1708, Charles XII of Sweden had already driven Augustus from the Polish throne once, and his restoration in 1709 following Poltava made this a transitional mintage straddling two separate political realities. Dresden was producing coin for a king whose grip on Warsaw was, at best, contested.
Kopicki numbers 10800 and 10801 distinguish between the two years, with minor die differences. Neither year saw substantial circulation within Poland itself.
