| Beschrijving voorzijde | A rampant lion facing left, crowned and holding a sword upright in its right paw, supports the arms of Zürich — a quartered shield bearing the city's diagonal bicolor — at center field. The heraldic composition is boldly rendered in high relief, occupying most of the coin's surface. A toothed border frames the design, with the circular Latin legend reading * MONETA * NOVA * REIPVBLICÆ * TIGVRINÆ distributed around the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Zürich struck thalers throughout this period under the authority of its council, operating as a fully sovereign mint within the loose framework of the Swiss Confederation. The city's monetary independence was practical rather than ceremonial — Zürich sat at a major trade crossroads between southern Germany and the Italian states, and reliable large silver coinage was essential for wholesale commerce that smaller cantonal issues simply could not serve.
The Wunderly and Hürlimann references place this firmly within a well-documented sequence, but individual year dates within the 1673–1694 span carry meaningfully different survival rates, with later strikes generally scarcer in problem-free condition.
