Interesting fact

The 2 Franchi coin from the Canton of Ticino, made of silver and weighing 14.89g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Switzerland. The Congress of Vienna, which took place in 1815, led to the formation of the Swiss Confederation, and the Ticino region became a part of it. This coin, minted in 1813, may have been one of the last coins minted before the region's transition into the Swiss Confederation.
