Above the shield, a displayed eagle with spread wings serves as a crest or crown element. The whole is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with a circular Latin legend around the periphery reading MONETA NOVA LUCERNEN, with decorative stops separating the words. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lucerne's Dicken coinage emerged from the Swiss Confederation's persistent need for large silver pieces capable of competing with the Thaler denominations flooding in from Habsburg mints. The city held the right to strike such coins by cantonal authority, and production across this half-century was intermittent — driven by trade demand rather than a continuous minting program.
Wielandt's classification of this specific variant under his Luzern sequence reflects a die study conducted decades after the fact; the original mint records for this period are fragmentary at best, making precise dating within the 1550–1601 window largely a matter of stylistic analysis.
