Interesting fact
The 10 Kreuzer coin from Chur (Grisons) was minted during a time when the city was part of the Old Swiss Confederacy, a political union of Swiss cantons that lasted from the late medieval period to the early modern period. The coin features the coat of arms of Chur, which includes a bishop's mitre and a crozier, reflecting the city's historical significance as a center of religious power and influence.
