| Beschrijving voorzijde | A displayed imperial eagle occupies the central field, set within a beaded inner circle. Below the eagle appears the shield of Zug, rendered as a barred helmet or escutcheon device. The circumscribed Latin legend reads + MONETA TVCIEN, referencing the Tugium (Zug) mint authority. The overall style is characteristic of small Swiss cantonal billon coinage of the late sixteenth century, with somewhat crude but expressive die engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Zug was among the smallest and least wealthy of the Swiss cantons, and its billon small change from this period reflects a municipal economy operating on thin margins. The Vierer — worth four Rappen — was the workhorse denomination for local market transactions, and Zug's issues circulated well beyond cantonal borders by necessity, absorbed into the broader Swiss small-change economy that routinely ignored political boundaries.
The HMZ 1#2-1083a classification covers the full run from 1564 through 1599, suggesting the same dies or closely related working dies saw extended use across decades — not unusual for a small mint with limited resources and low incentive to recut working tools.
