| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a beaded inner circle, an ornate baroque shield bearing the divided coat of arms of Zürich — per bend sinister, the upper dexter field plain and the lower sinister field with a diagonal band — surmounted by an elaborate scrollwork mantle. Three rosettes are positioned in the fields flanking and below the shield. The circumscribed Latin legend runs along the periphery, separated by rosette stops. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Klippen of this type were not emergency issues — Zürich struck square coinage deliberately, as prestige pieces intended for presentation and collection rather than trade. The 1621 date places this directly within the Thirty Years' War, which had broken out three years earlier and was already disrupting monetary circulation across the Swiss Confederation's neighboring territories. Zürich's decision to produce square multiples in silver at this moment reads less as economic policy than as a confident assertion of civic stability.
The Winter Kl#8a attribution suggests a specific die marriage within a small documented group.
