| Obverse description | Standing female allegory personifying the canton of Neuchâtel, draped in classical attire, her right foot resting on a broken yoke symbolizing liberation. She raises two staffs in her right hand bearing the Swiss and Neuchâtel flags, while her lowered left hand holds a torch with dissipating smoke. The engraver's name S. MOGNETTI appears in the lower field, with the circular legend around the periphery. |
