| Beschrijving keerzijde | Within a raised circular border, the denomination UN SOL appears in two lines of bold incuse lettering occupying the central field. The Genevan motto POST TENEBRAS LUX (After the darkness, the light) is inscribed in the outer legend, flanked by two raised dots at the base. The date 1825 appears in the lower exergual area between the dots, completing the reverse design in a plain and legible typographic arrangement typical of early Swiss cantonal coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Geneva struck this issue in the final years before Swiss cantonal coinage was swept aside by federal consolidation. The gold-plated billon construction was a deliberate economy measure — billon provided the substrate at a fraction of the cost while the plating maintained a presentable face for small commercial transactions. Canton-issued pieces like this one became obsolete almost overnight when the Swiss Confederation centralized coinage authority in 1850, leaving large quantities unspent and, in many cases, still retaining much of their surface plating.
