Reverse description Central design features a floriated cross composed of four ornate, interlocking elements, likely representing the combined arms of the bishop and chapter, within a beaded inner circle. Above the central cross appears a small crown or episcopal symbol. The surrounding Latin legend reads ·S·DEVS·PR·NOB·Q·CO·NO·, an abbreviated devotional inscription invoking divine protection, separated by pellet stops. The overall composition is typical of late Renaissance ecclesiastical coinage from the Swiss Graubünden region, with strong Gothic influence in the decorative cross motif.
