Beschrijving keerzijde Central shield of the ducal Saxon arms surmounted by a crested helmet with flowing mantling, displaying the quartered arms of the Saxon duchies in the Gothic heraldic tradition. A mint symbol — either a star and moon (for issues of circa 1507–1511) or a cross (for issues of circa 1512–1523) — appears in or adjacent to the field as a mint-master or control mark. The surrounding legend, separated from the central device by a beaded inner circle, identifies the denomination and the issuing dukes. The overall style is consistent with other Ernestine Saxon groschen of the early sixteenth century.

Aanvullende informatie

The Zinsgroschen — literally "interest groschen" or "tithe groschen" — circulated primarily to facilitate tax and rent payments in the Saxon territories, a denomination whose name reflects the fiscal machinery of the territorial state rather than any commemorative impulse. These were working coins, produced in quantity and spent immediately. The joint-reign attribution to Frederick III, John, and George reflects the Ernestine practice of collective rule following the 1485 Leipzig partition, which divided the Wettin lands between the Ernestine and Albertine lines yet left certain administrative coinage issued in multiple names simultaneously.

The Keilitz#55 variant designation suggests die differences within the type — worth cross-referencing against Slg. Merse for emission sequence.
