Interesting fact
The 5 Rappen coin from the Canton of Fribourg, made of Billon and weighing 1.81g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Switzerland. The 1830s saw the country transitioning from a loose confederation of states to a more centralized federal state, and the introduction of a new currency system was part of this process. The 5 Rappen coin was one of the first coins to be minted under this new system, and it features a unique design that reflects the cultural and historical significance of the Canton of Fribourg.
