| Reverse description | A forked or bifurcated cross divides the reverse field into four quarters, each canton bearing a Gothic letter 'H' in relief, referencing the issuer Henri I. The cross extends to a beaded inner circle, with the surrounding legend occupying the outer field. The design is typical of late Renaissance Swiss cantonal billon coinage, displaying the characteristic irregularities of hand-struck production. A floral ornament terminates the legend. |
