| Beschrijving keerzijde | Saint Martin seated facing, vested in full episcopal regalia, holding a crosier in his left hand while raising his right hand in a gesture of benediction. The figure is rendered in the late Gothic style typical of early sixteenth-century Swiss coinage. The bishop's throne or seat is implied by the frontal, formal posture of the saint. The surrounding legend identifies the subject in Latin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Uri and Nidwalden formed a rare bilateral monetary agreement in the early sixteenth century, one of the few instances in the Old Confederacy where two distinct forest cantons jointly authorized coinage rather than striking independently. The arrangement was brief — the union dissolved within a few years — which kept overall production low.
The Testone denomination itself had only recently penetrated Swiss minting practice, borrowed from Italian models circulating across the Alpine passes that both cantons controlled as transit territory.
