| Obverse description | The arms of Basel — a black crosier on a white field — displayed on a shield set within an ornate quatrefoil frame with fleurs-de-lis at the cusps. The date 1565 appears integrated into the surrounding circular legend, which reads MON · NO · VRBIS · BASILIENSIS, identifying this as a new coin of the city of Basel. The design is rendered in a late Renaissance hammered style with a beaded inner border. |
