| Obverse description | Panoramic lakeside view of Geneva in low relief, with a sailing vessel prominently depicted in the left foreground and a lighthouse with masts along a jetty in the middle ground. The cityscape with church spires is visible across the water, and the arms of Geneva — a shield divided with an eagle and a key, surrounded by radiating rays — appear in high relief in the upper right field. A maker's signature is visible in the lower left exergue. |
