| Reverse description | Detailed bird's-eye panoramic view of the city of Basel straddling the Rhine River, rendered in fine relief with towers, spires, fortifications, and bridges depicted with considerable topographic accuracy. Vessels are visible on the river, and the city's distinctive cathedral and civic buildings are prominently featured. The legend BASILEA appears in a cartouche at the top of the field, identifying the city. The finely engraved cityscape occupies virtually the entire coin surface, reflecting the high artistic standards of Basel's civic coinage of this period. |
