| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features the elaborately rendered arms of the Abbey of Beromünster: a crowned oval escutcheon bearing a lion passant over a barry field, set within a cartouche formed by a large cross, flanked by decorative acanthus scrollwork and an olive branch to the left. The shield is surmounted by a princely crown with ostrich plumes above. A circular Latin legend surrounds the composition, reading BERO · COM · DE · LENZB : FUNDA · ECCL · BERO · 720, referencing the Count of Lenzburg as founder of the church of Beromünster and the commemorative year 1720. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Beromünster was one of the smallest ecclesiastical mints in the Swiss Confederation, operating under imperial privilege but producing coinage so infrequently that each issue was essentially a one-off event. The abbey's secular coinage authority was perpetually contested by neighboring Lucerne, which resented the competition on purely economic grounds. KM#3 is among the handful of surviving denominational pieces attributable to this chapter — the abbey's output was never large, and attrition over three centuries has been severe.
