| Reverse description | Kneeling figure of Blessed Nicholas of Flüe (Niklaus von Flüe), patron saint of Switzerland, depicted in three-quarter view facing left, wearing a hermit's habit and holding a rosary and cross in his hands. The saint is shown in a rocky landscape with a small flowering plant to his right, rendered in a detailed baroque engraving style. A nimbus or halo is visible above his head, emphasizing his beatified status. The surrounding Latin legend B: NICOLAUS DE FLUE HELV: CATH: PATR. identifies the subject as the patron of Catholic Helvetia. |
