Interesting fact
The 2 Rappen coin from the Canton of Aargau, made of Billon and weighing 1.3g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Switzerland. The coin was issued during the period of the Helvetic Republic (1798-1803), which was a short-lived republic that was established following the French invasion of Switzerland. The coin's design, featuring the coat of arms of the Canton of Aargau on one side and the value and year of minting on the other, reflects the political and economic changes that were taking place in Switzerland during this time. Despite its relatively small denomination, the coin is a valuable piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political climate of the time.
