Reverse description A detailed panoramic cityscape of Basel occupies the central field, depicting the city skyline with the twin spires of Basel Minster, towers, fortifications, and the Rhine bridge rendered in fine relief, with the river shown in the foreground. Above the cityscape, a frieze of small cartouches displaying the armorial shields of the Basel guilds and allied cantons frames the upper portion of the coin. The city name BASILEA appears in the upper field above the panorama, and the date 1740 is inscribed in the lower exergue, flanked by foliate sprigs. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border.
