Obverse description Central device features the shield of Vaud — bearing the canton's green-and-white arms — surmounted by a civic oak crown, with vine branches and wheat ears flanking either side as decorative supporters. The surrounding legend reads CANTON DE VAUD LIBERTE ET PATRIE with the date below, rendered in upright Latin lettering. The composition reflects the agricultural and civic symbolism characteristic of early Swiss cantonal coinage of the Napoleonic era.
