| Obverse description | Draped bust of Friedrich August II facing right, wearing a long curled wig and armor with elaborate lace cravat, rendered in high relief with fine baroque detail. The legend encircles the effigy along the outer rim within a beaded border, reading D·G·FRID·AUGUST·REX POLONIARUM·. The portrait is characteristic of mid-18th century Saxon coinage, conveying regal authority through its naturalistic modelling and rich surface detail. |
