The founding of the lifesaving medals dates back to 1831. On May 18, 1831, King Anton, together with his co-ruler Friedrich August of Saxony, first established rescue medals in the German state. Prior to that, bonuses were paid for rescue statuses, which, according to the fund, were provided only in the form of exceptions. Medals were awarded in 3 stages, gold, silver and bronze were awarded wearable, as well as non-wearable. To receive the medal, it was necessary to look for the appropriate government district and justify the requested level. Medals were awarded in 6 versions, on the front of each of which was an image of the ruling king. The 1st form was granted in 1831-1836 and carried portraits of both founders. The 2nd form of 1836-1854 carried a portrait of King Frederick Augustus II, the 3rd form of 1854-1873 - a portrait of King Johann, the 4th form of 1873-1902 - a portrait of King Albert, the 5th form of 1902-1904 - a portrait of King George.
