Interesting fact

The 10 Batzen coin from the Canton of the Grisons, made of silver and weighing 7.4g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Switzerland. The coin was issued in 1825, just a few years after the Congress of Vienna, which had established a new political order in Europe following the Napoleonic Wars. The Grisons, a mountainous region in eastern Switzerland, had been part of the Austrian Empire and was now an independent canton within the Swiss Confederation. The coin's design, featuring the Grisons' coat of arms and the Swiss cross, reflects this new political reality. It's a tangible reminder of the complex history and political transformations that shaped Europe in the early 19th century.
