| Obverse description | Central field displays the arms of Zürich — a per pale shield divided diagonally, charged with a crow (Krähe) — set within a quatrefoil inner frame composed of lobed arcs. Small ornamental crosses or rosettes appear in the spandrels between the lobes and the shield. The entire central device is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, beyond which runs a Gothic uncial legend in the outer margin, likewise bounded by a beaded border at the rim. The overall composition is typical of late-medieval Swiss municipal coinage, with strong relief lettering and a heraldic central motif. |
