| Obverse description | Double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the central field, with the arms of Geneva — a shield divided per pale, bearing a demi-eagle and a key — superimposed on the eagle's breast. An imperial crown surmounts the two heads of the eagle. The circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, separated from the central device by a plain inner border. |

The denomination, issuing authority, and date are rendered in Roman capital letters across five lines within the cartouche. |
