| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device features the cantonal arms of Lucerne — a vertically divided oval shield displaying the distinctive Lucerne diagonal bar — set within an ornate wreath of laurel and foliate scrollwork. The shield is rendered in a decorative cartouche style with elaborate baroque flourishes flanking either side. The circular legend CANTON · LUCERN arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination I · BAZ appears in a recessed rectangular panel at the base of the design, separated from the central device by a horizontal line. The coin is bordered by a continuous inner ring of fine beading. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lucerne struck this small billon piece during the Mediation period, after Napoleon dissolved the Helvetic Republic in 1803 and restored a degree of cantonal autonomy. The cantons regained the right to issue their own coinage, and Lucerne wasted little time. The dual denomination — Batzen alongside the decimal Rappen — reflects the awkward monetary transition underway, with old Swiss accounting units and the newer French-influenced decimal system forced to coexist on a single coin.
The series ran only three years before federal pressure toward monetary standardization made such cantonal issues increasingly untenable.
