Interesting fact

The 10 Batzen coin from the Canton of Vaud, made of silver (.900) and weighing 7.45g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Switzerland. The coin was issued in 1823, just a few years after the Congress of Vienna, which had established a new European political order following the Napoleonic Wars. Switzerland, which had been a loose confederation of cantons for centuries, was in the process of becoming a federal state, with a new constitution and a centralized government. The minting of this coin reflects the growing economic and political unity of Switzerland during this period.
