| Reverse description | The four-line Latin religious motto DOMINE CONSERVA NOS IN PACE ('Lord, preserve us in peace') is inscribed in bold Roman capitals within an elaborate baroque cartouche framed by richly scrolled acanthus foliage. The date 1690 flanks a small central circle containing the numeral 36, denoting the denomination in Schillings, positioned along the lower margin of the cartouche. The reeded border encircles the entire design. The overall treatment reflects the refined baroque engraving style characteristic of late 17th-century Swiss municipal coinage. |
