| Obverse description | Centrally positioned shield bearing a rampant bear facing right, rendered in relief against a plain field. The shield is framed by a symmetrical laurel wreath with berries, whose tied base rests at the lower exergue. Above the shield, the abbreviated legend 'CFC' appears in the upper field between the wreath branches. The coin's border is defined by a fine milled edge. The overall design is compact and crisp, typical of small Swiss cantonal billon coinage of the early 18th century. |

| Reverse description | The denomination 'I KREUTZER' is inscribed in three lines across the central field, with the numerals and letters rendered in bold relief. Below the denomination, the date '1738' is placed in the lower portion of the field. The entire inscription is enclosed within a full symmetrical laurel wreath with berries, tied at the base, mirroring the obverse wreath design. The border is defined by a milled edge consistent with the obverse. The layout is clean and functional, characteristic of Swiss cantonal subsidiary coinage of the period. |
