August III's copper trojaki of 1754 are among the most debased issues of his reign — a reign defined by monetary manipulation carried out largely under the direction of Heinrich von Brühl, the king's chief minister, who treated the Commonwealth's mint operations as a revenue instrument for the Saxon court rather than a public utility. The Guben and Grünthal facilities were private contract mints operating under license, their output often of questionable alloy consistency.
Counterfeiting of these coins was rampant almost immediately, aided by the simplicity of striking in copper.
