| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the quartered coat of arms of the Canton of Solothurn, composed of alternating black and gold (depicted in relief) quadrants. The cantonal arms are surrounded by a circular legend reading CANTON SOLOTHURN, with the abbreviated canton name S O and the date 1809 incorporated into the inscription. Three dots and a foliate ornament serve as punctuation marks at the beginning and end of the legend, framing the design within the coin's periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Solothurn's Batzen coinage of this period reflects the chaotic monetary conditions that followed the collapse of the Helvetic Republic in 1803, when individual cantons reasserted the right to strike their own money. The "three points" designation distinguishes a specific die variety within the 1809 issue — the points appearing after the date — and HMZ 2-859f catalogs it separately from closely related emissions of the same year.
Billon's falling silver content was a practical response to metal shortages that plagued Swiss cantonal mints throughout the Napoleonic period.
