| Reverse description | A rampant lion facing right supports the Swiss federal shield bearing a cross, with three pike-bearing cantonal flags of Schwyz, Uri, and Unterwalden rising behind. The lion rests its forepaw on an open scroll inscribed PACTUM / I . AUG / MCCXCI and treads on a chain at the base. A laurel branch decorates the lower field, the dates 1291 and 1891 appear in the exergue, and the engraver's initials C.R. are visible below the central device. |
