| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a large, spread Imperial double-headed eagle facing outward, with both heads crowned beneath a single imperial crown at the apex, wings displayed and detailed with fine feather engraving typical of hammered Swiss thalers of the period. The eagle's breast is unshielded. The encircling Latin legend DOMINE · SERVA · NOS · IN · PACE · 59 · ('Lord, preserve us in peace') runs within a beaded border, with the last two digits of the date (here 59, indicating 1559) incorporated into the legend. The composition reflects the city's dual allegiance to civic piety and imperial authority. |

Zürich's Kelchtaler takes its name from the chalice-type reverse, a design choice that placed the city squarely in the visual vocabulary of Reformed Protestantism at a moment when Zwingli's influence still shaped every civic decision. The canton had full minting rights confirmed under imperial privilege, and the Thaler series issued across this decade served the heavy trade flows through the city's markets as much as any political statement.
Davenport's EC I listing places this among the early Swiss cantonal Thalers — a series where die workmanship varies considerably across the production run.
