Comment
War issue struck during the occupation of Poland with inferior gold quality for usage in Poland.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Thalers - Frederick August II 1755 coin from the Electorate of Saxony (Albertinian Line) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Frederick August II, who was the Elector of Saxony and King of Poland from 1746 until his death in 1763. During his reign, Frederick August II implemented a number of economic and political reforms, including the introduction of a new currency system, which helped to stabilize the economy and promote trade in the region. The coin itself is made of gold and weighs 13.32 grams, making it a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
