Interesting fact

The 10 Batzen coin from the Canton of Zurich, made of silver and weighing 7.40g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Switzerland. In 1812, the country was facing economic challenges and political instability, which led to the introduction of a new currency, the Batzen, to replace the existing currency, the Gulden. The 10 Batzen coin was one of the denominations introduced during this time, and it was used widely in the Canton of Zurich. Despite the challenges faced by Switzerland during this period, the 10 Batzen coin remains a valuable collector's item today, with some mint conditions selling for thousands of dollars.
