| Reverse description | A large Latin cross divides the field into four quadrants, with decorative wedge-shaped or petal-like elements radiating from the center, creating a wheel or cross-pattée effect. The letter X is visible at the center of the cross, a reference to the denomination. The entire motif is contained within a circle, with the uncial legend of Saint Ursus, patron of Solothurn, arranged around the outer border of the coin. The hammered flan is irregular in shape, typical of medieval Swiss coinage. |
