| Obverse description | The arms of Bern displayed within an ornate cartouche: a crowned shield bearing the walking bear passant, the civic emblem of the city. The shield is flanked by decorative scrollwork forming the cartouche surround. A circular legend in Latin frames the design along the coin's periphery, reading + MONETA · BERNENSIS. The overall style is characteristic of late 17th-century Swiss municipal coinage, with bold relief on a small flan. |
