Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 32 Franken 1813 coin from the Canton of Solothurn is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Switzerland. The coin was issued during the Helvetic Republic, a short-lived federal state that existed from 1798 to 1803, and its value was equivalent to 40 Batzen, the local currency of the time. Despite its age, the coin remains a valuable collector's item, with some mint conditions selling for thousands of dollars.
