| Obverse description | Central oval shield bearing the arms of Fribourg — per fess, the upper half cross-hatched (representing sable) and the lower half plain — surmounted by a large civic crown with five visible arches and foliate ornament. The shield is flanked on either side by symmetrical laurel or olive sprigs that curve gracefully inward, all contained within a raised inner circle. The circumferential legend reads RESPUBLICA FRIBURGENS., with the date 1793 separated by pellets at the base of the design, and the entire composition is bordered by a bold milled or beaded rim. |
