Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 2 Francs (Pattern) 1860 from Switzerland is that it features a unique design that was never adopted as the official coinage of Switzerland. The pattern coin was minted in 1860 as a trial or sample coin, but it was ultimately rejected in favor of a different design. Despite this, the Pattern 2 Francs has become a sought-after collector's item among numismatists due to its rarity and historical significance.
