Interesting fact

The Pattern 10 Kreuzers 1755 from the City of Bern is a rare and valuable coin, with only a few examples known to exist. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, with a crowned eagle on the obverse (front) side, and a shield with the Bernese coat of arms on the reverse (back) side. This design was specifically created for the City of Bern and is not found on any other coins from the same time period. Additionally, the coin's silver content and small weight make it a notable piece for collectors and historians.
