This silver medal, created by Philipp Heinrich Müller in 1692, depicts Johan Georg IV, Elector of Saxony. The obverse portrays the elector in profile, while the reverse features a personification of Mars, the Roman god of war, as a victorious warrior. The medal commemorates Johan Georg's role in a military campaign, potentially the Siege of Buda in 1686. The inscription on the reverse reads "Mars Victor," signifying the elector's triumph. This small-scale work of art, measuring just 5 cm in diameter, is a significant piece in the field of numismatic art.
