| Obverse description | The obverse displays the Basel basilisk, the heraldic creature of the city, depicted in right profile with wings spread, a serpentine tail, and a crowned head, standing amid foliate sprigs. The figure is rendered in fine relief within a plain field, conveying a bold and dynamic civic symbolism. A beaded border frames the design along the coin's periphery. The circular Latin legend reads DOMINE · CONSERVA · NOS · IN PACE, meaning 'Lord, preserve us in peace.' |
