| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of Saint Ursicinus (Ursinnus), patron saint of Basel, depicted frontally in episcopal vestments, holding a book in one hand and a flower or palm frond in the other. The saint is rendered in a simplified, Gothic-influenced style characteristic of hammered billon coinage of the late 16th century. The encircling Latin legend names the saint and is punctuated by cross stops. |
