but with a difference
since each of these cantonal proruptions is pinched by
2 other cantons
rather than 1 other country

indeed the confirmed pair are
b o t h
accompanied by jura opposite solothurn
however improbably
one being an extenuation of basel landschaft & the
other of bern
hence producing the megapoints ch2blbljuso & bebejuso
respectively
tho the former is misidentified by cia intelligence as
an identical twin of the latter
which is poorly depicted besides
on this otherwise serviceable & fairly accurate
reference map
http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/europe/switzerland_admin_2000.jpg
which is of course incomplete & ultimately unreliable

i might add i have found the preliminary punctoscopy &
clavoscopy of switzerland delightfully stimulating
precisely for want of a decent & detailed enough map

but just to zero in a little further on these 2
remarkable cases
& by general agreement among several swiss zoomables
of which this one gives the clearest detail
first
the baselian

solothurn being the red corner in the northeast
with jura catercornered to it in the southwest

& then
the bernese

with solothurn again colorized & jura again its
opposite member

aerial photos available

this latter case is a complete municipality called
schelten & is shown in context here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Karte_Gemeinden_des_Bezirks_Moutier.png
& the former contains a main locality named roggenburg
but is apparently not self standing


&
a third but unconfirmed semiclave border cross
on the strength only of encarta among several better
zoomables
would be in the midst of lake neuchatel
tho i dont presume enough without better authority to
even try to say its name
