| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the quartered arms of Zürich — a diagonal division with a field of bezants (pellets) on the dexter — set within a double-headed cross pattée, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The Latin legend MON NO ∙ T HVRIC ENSIS encircles the design between the inner beaded border and an outer beaded rim, consistent with the hammered klippe format. The shield and cross composition occupies the majority of the square flan, with the design struck on a diamond-oriented planchet. A suspension hole is pierced at the upper corner, indicating this piece was likely worn or displayed as a keepsake. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Klippe issues from Zürich in this period were almost certainly struck as presentation pieces or Schaugepräge rather than for everyday use — square-struck coins of this type served as gifts to visiting dignitaries or as records of the city's minting competence. The 1589 date places this squarely within the period of Zürich's effort to assert monetary authority within the Swiss Confederation, a relationship perpetually complicated by competing cantonal and imperial weight standards.
Winter Kl#23a is among the scarcer documented Zürich klippe varieties of the late sixteenth century.
