| Obverse description | The coat of arms of Aarau occupies the central field, featuring a quartered shield with stars and a cityscape device, bearing a counterstamp in the form of the letter 'A' on the shield. The legend AARAU arcs along the upper portion, while a wreath composed of an oak branch to the left and a laurel branch to the right frames the shield. The date 1849 appears in a rectangular frame in the lower exergue. |
