| Reverse description | Central field features the double-headed Imperial eagle displayed, with wings spread and a shield on its breast, enclosed within an inner beaded circle. The numeral 3 appears above the eagle, likely denoting a value indicator. The surrounding circular Latin legend reads DEVS:SPES:NOSTRA:EST, with the denomination numeral 15 incorporated into the legend, asserting the city's Protestant motto 'God is our hope.' The eagle's rendering is characteristic of Swiss hammered coinage of the period, with strong, deeply struck plumage details. |
