| Reverse description | A panoramic bird's-eye view of the city of Basel dominates the field, depicting the Rhine with its stone bridge, boats on the river, and the city's distinctive skyline of spires, towers, and buildings rendered in fine engraved detail, with wooded foreground below. Eight heraldic shields of the allied Swiss cantons are arranged in an arc above the cityscape, each displaying their respective armorial bearings. The Latin city name BASILEA appears prominently in the upper field between the shields and the panorama, and the date 1741 is inscribed in the lower exergue on a scroll flanked by floral ornaments. |
