St. Gallen, Stadt: 6 Kreuzer

Front: Aufrechter, nach l. schreitender Bär mit Halsband; in Kreislinie; unten ovale Kartusche mit gerollter Schlange (Münzmeisterzeichen).
Rear: Zwischen zwei Lorbeerzweigen, oben Rosette.
Provenience: Altbestand (vor 1871)
Recut die: Secondary re-engraving of a die after it has already been used to strike coins, medals, or tokens, e.g. to repair defects in the die or modify its design.
Field smoothed: The field of a coin or medal has secondarily been fully or partly deepened in order to improve the relief of the legend or image. This procedure occurs especially with collectors' objects and is not part of the working process of a mint. Not to be confused with the re-cutting of parts of the design or legend on a coin, or the erasure of elements of them.
