| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicts the Basel crozier — the heraldic bishop's staff and cross-keys emblem of the canton — set within a plain oval cartouche and flanked by two symmetrical sprays of oak leaves and acorns. The circular legend CANTON BASEL is inscribed along the upper periphery, while the denomination 5. BATZEN. appears in the lower field beneath the wreath. The coin exhibits a finely milled border and a well-executed neoclassical design typical of Swiss cantonal coinage of the early nineteenth century. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device features a large Swiss cross with trefoil terminals, each arm containing a recessed quatrefoil panel and a central circular boss, with the denomination numerals '5' and letter 'B' inscribed in the lower arm. The cross is encircled by a wreath of oak branches tied with a ribbon at the base. The surrounding legend CONCORD. CANTONE DER SCHWEIZ arcs around the upper periphery, with the date 1826 appearing in the lower exergual area between two pellets. The overall composition reflects the Concordat coinage system shared among the Swiss cantons. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Basel's cantonal coinage authority was winding down by the late 1820s. The Federal Coinage Act of 1850 would soon abolish cantonal issues entirely, making 1826-dated pieces among the final expressions of Basel's independent minting tradition. HMZ 2#109d designates a specific die pairing within the broader 109 sequence — collectors working the series distinguish these by the subtle positional differences in the date numerals.
