Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 15 Schillings / 45 Rappen coin from the Canton of Glarus is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Switzerland. The coin was introduced in 1806, just a few years after the French invasion of Switzerland in 1798, which led to the establishment of the Helvetic Republic. The coin's design, featuring the coat of arms of the Canton of Glarus on one side and the Swiss cross on the other, reflects the political and cultural shifts that were taking place in the country during this time. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver and weighs 4.0 grams makes it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists.
