| Obverse description | A standing armored warrior in Renaissance dress is depicted in high relief at center, holding a long musket over his shoulder and resting his hand on a heraldic shield bearing the Geneva eagle. Behind him, a cannon with cannonballs is visible to the left, and a detailed cityscape of Geneva fills the background. The legend TOUT POUR LA PATRIE arcs along the upper border, with the dates 1519 • 1526 and 1584 • 1814 arranged along the lower field, and engravers' signatures in the lower left and right. |
