| Reverse description | A bold Greek cross centered within a beaded inner circle, its four cantons each filled with elaborate floral and foliate ornaments in the form of fleurs-de-lis and acanthus scrollwork, characteristic of early 17th-century Swiss civic coinage. The surrounding circular Latin legend, reading ✥ BERCIIT · D · ZERIG CONDITOR, references the legendary founder of Bern. The overall design is well-struck with crisp, deeply engraved relief. |
