Interesting fact
The 2½ Rappen coin from the Canton of Fribourg, made of Billon and weighing 0.94g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Switzerland. The coin was issued in 1846, just a few years after the country had undergone a significant political overhaul, including the adoption of a new federal constitution and the establishment of a new currency system. Despite these changes, the 2½ Rappen coin remained a widely used denomination, reflecting the economic and financial stability of the region.
