| Reverse description | The Virgin Mary, haloed and standing in full figure, turned slightly to the left, holding the Christ Child before her; she stands upon a crescent moon, her form surrounded by a glory of radiating rays in the Immaculate Conception tradition. The devotional Latin legend AVE MARIA GRATIA PLENA encircles the design within the outer border, referencing the Angelic Salutation. The overall composition is rendered in the late Renaissance style characteristic of ecclesiastical Swiss coinage of the late sixteenth century. |
