| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield bearing the arms of Basel — a black crozier (bishop's staff) on a white field — set within an ornate rococo-style cartouche frame. A decorative sprig of foliage and flowers surmounts the shield, while two crossed olive or laurel branches appear beneath it in the lower field. The circular Latin legend DOMINE CONSERVA NOS IN PACE (Lord, preserve us in peace) runs along the periphery, with a beaded border encircling the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Basel's 3 Batzen was a product of the chaotic monetary transition following the Napoleonic reorganization of Switzerland. The Mediation Act of 1803 had restored cantonal sovereignty after the short-lived Helvetic Republic, and cantons scrambled to reassert their own coinage rights before federal standardization could curtail them. Basel's window was narrow — the Federal Coinage Law of 1850 would eventually sweep away all such cantonal issues, but in 1809 that reckoning was still four decades off.
The two-year production span likely reflects a specific authorized striking rather than continuous mint output.
