Reverse description A large imperial double-headed eagle displayed in the field, with both heads crowned and surmounted by a single crown at the top, the wings spread and the breast unadorned. The eagle fills the majority of the reverse field within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding Latin legend, reading CVM+HIS+QVI+ODERT+PACE+ERAM+PACIFICVS (a biblical quotation from Psalm 120:7, 'With those who hate peace I was peaceful'), encircles the design and reflects the humanist and Protestant sensibilities of the canton in the mid-sixteenth century.
