| Obverse description | Full-length frontal effigy of Emperor Charlemagne enthroned, richly draped and wearing an imperial crown, holding an upright sword resting across his lap and a globus cruciger in his left hand. The figure is rendered in a formal, hieratic style characteristic of early sixteenth-century Swiss civic coinage. The legend is disposed around the periphery of the field in Latin majuscules. |
