| Obverse description | Imperial double-headed eagle displayed, each head surmounted by a crown, with a heraldic shield on the breast bearing the arms of the Bishopric of Chur. A crowned imperial orb inscribed with the denomination '12' is placed below the eagle's body, serving as the value mark. The circumferential Latin legend runs within a beaded inner border, identifying the issuing bishop. The composition is rendered in a bold, high-relief hammered style typical of 16th-century Swiss ecclesiastical coinage. |
