Obverse description Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the field, with a small oval shield superimposed on the eagle's breast depicting a rampant bear to the left, the traditional heraldic emblem of Appenzell. The circumferential legend in Latin characters is separated from the central device by a beaded inner circle. The design reflects the canton's subordinate relationship to the Holy Roman Empire.
