| Obverse description | Three heraldic shields arranged in trefoil formation occupy the central field, each bearing the arms of the three confederate cantons: the bull's head of Uri positioned at the top, the diagonal cross of Schwyz at lower left, and the two crossed keys of Unterwalden at lower right. The shields are rendered in relief against a plain field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend, separated by a cross pattée and star stops, reads ✠ VRANIE ★ SVIT ★ VNDERVALD, abbreviating the Latin forms of the three cantons' names. |
