| Reverse description | A detailed panoramic city view of Basel is depicted across the central field, showing the skyline of the city with its characteristic church spires, towers, and buildings rendered in fine engraving, with the Rhine in the foreground complete with a small boat. An arched arrangement of eight heraldic shields representing allied cantons and associated territories frames the upper portion of the scene. The city name BASILEA appears in the upper field in bold capital letters between the arc of shields and the cityscape. The date 1741 is inscribed in the lower exergue, flanked by decorative floral or foliate ornaments. |
