The reverse of the coin shows a bust of the king, taken from the medal (probably after a painting by Jan Bogumił Plersch), in left profile, with short hair slicked back, with a moustache, wearing a cuirass and a coat with a fur collar fastened with a button. On the obverse of the coin we read the text from the reverse of the medal (in translation): The king, elevated to the throne during the Swedish riots in the year of our Lord 1705, gave way to the power of the returning August II. After his death, he was unanimously elected in the year of our Lord 1733. Giving in to violence, on the basis of the Treaty of Vienna in the year of our Lord 1736, he took possession of Lorraine. Philosopher, benefactor, always mindful of his country, burnt by accidental flames, died in Lunéville in the year of our Lord 1766, on February 23, at the age of 89.
