| Reverse description | A detailed bird's-eye panoramic view of the city of Lucerne fills the lower portion of the field, showing the walled city with the Reuss River, Chapel Bridge, Musegg Wall, and the twin spires of Saint Leodegar Church to the right. Above, in the heavens amid clouds, the crowned Madonna holding the Christ Child appears in high relief, with a putto to the right holding a torch. The Latin legend LVCERNA PEDIBVS MEIS curves along the upper rim. |
