| Beschrijving keerzijde | A royal crown surmounts two interlaced and ornamented oval shields bearing the arms of Saxony and Poland-Lithuania, forming a central monogram within the field. The denomination numeral appears below the shields, and the date and fineness legend surround the design along the periphery. The overall composition is characteristic of mid-18th century Saxon coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick August II of Saxony spent much of the Seven Years' War watching Prussian forces occupy his electorate. Dresden fell to Frederick the Great in 1756, and Saxon mint operations were severely disrupted — or co-opted entirely, as Prussia infamously used captured Saxon mint facilities and dies to strike debased "Saxon" coinage in Frederick August's name, flooding the region with underweight Ephraimiten. The 1762–63 dating of this piece places it at the war's close, when legitimate Saxon minting resumed under chaotic postwar conditions.
