Germany Gold 20 Mark Saxony Friedrich August (1905-1914) Avg Circ
Struck in the early twentieth century, this historic gold coin represents the final chapter of the Kingdom of Saxony under the German Empire. Minted during the reign of King Friedrich August III, the piece contains 0.2304 troy ounces of pure gold within its 90 percent fine gold composition. Having circulated through daily commerce over a century ago, each surviving specimen carries the distinct character and honest wear of a genuine historical artifact. The obverse features a detailed portrait of King Friedrich August III, facing right. Surrounding his likeness is the inscription naming him as the King of Saxony, alongside the letter E, which indicates the coin was struck at the Muldenhutten Mint. This mint mark serves as a direct link to the regional craftsmanship of the era. On the reverse, the coin displays the grand German imperial eagle, a powerful symbol of the unified empire. This side also bears the official denomination of 20 Mark and the year of issue, framing the heraldic design in a classic display of late imperial coinage.
