| Reverse description | Central field bears the Imperial double-headed eagle displayed, with wings spread, each head crowned, and a shield on the breast bearing the numeral 30 denoting the denomination in Kreuzer. The eagle is rendered in fine detail characteristic of 16th-century Swiss hammered coinage. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by the circumferential Latin legend +DOMINE+CONSERVA+NOS+IN+PACE, meaning 'Lord, preserve us in peace', a pious motto commonly employed on Swiss city coinage of this period. |
