| Obverse description | Two heraldic supporters face each other in high relief: a rampant lion to the left brandishing a sword and supporting an oval shield bearing the arms of Zürich, and a rampant bear to the right brandishing a sword and supporting an oval shield bearing the arms of Bern. Above both figures, a radiant sun bursts from the upper field. The engraver's initials HIG appear in the lower exergue. The legend arcs around the upper border. |
