Reverse description A boldly rendered rampant bear passant to the right, depicted in high relief at the centre of the field, serving as the heraldic emblem of the Abbey of Saint Gall. The bear is framed within an open wreath composed of two branches — a palm frond to the left and an olive branch to the right — symbolising peace and victory. The date 1781 appears in the lower exergue within an oval cartouche formed by the wreath terminals. The abbreviated Latin legend ABB.S.G. E.S.I.A.V.E. encircles the design, identifying the issuer as Abbot of Saint Gall and Prince of the Holy Roman Empire.
