| Reverse description | The reverse presents a nine-line devotional Latin inscription arranged in stacked horizontal lines across the entire field, commemorating the third centenary of the pure preservation of the light of the Evangelical faith. The text reads LUCE EVANGELII / III. SÆCUL. / PURE / CONSERVATA / VOTA PUBLICA / CHRISTO / DECRETA / TIG·CAL·IAN / 1819, with the date prominently placed in the exergue line at the foot. The lettering is rendered in neat, well-spaced raised Roman capitals throughout, with no additional pictorial ornament. The abbreviation TIG·CAL·IAN refers to Tiguri (Zürich), Calendis Januarii, indicating the coin was issued on the first of January 1819. |
