W kręgu pereł, przerwanym u góry, między dwiema kopulastymi wieżami nad parapetem muru, znajduje się popiersie św. Maurycego z gołą głową, z nimbem w zbroi i płaszczu na ramieniu, z mieczem w prawej ręce, trzymającego sztandar w lewej (tkanina skierowana na zewnątrz). W polu obok miecza znajdują się trzy pierścienie, pod flagą krzyż kulisty i pierścień. Podwójny, trójłukowy łuk rozpościera się od kopulastej wieży do kopulastej wieży, za którą znajduje się gruba kopulasta wieża z bocznymi przedłużeniami. Napis między wewnętrznym i zewnętrznym perłowym kręgiem. Automatically translated

In a circle of pearls, interrupted at the top, between two domed towers above a wall parapet, is the bust of the bare-headed St. Moritz with nimbus in armor and shoulder cloak, a sword in his right hand, holding a flag in his left (the cloth facing outwards). In the field next to the sword there are three rings, under the flag a ball cross and a ring. A double-lined three-arch arch spans the saint from domed tower to domed tower, followed by a thick domed tower with side extensions. The inscription between the inner and outer pearl circles.
