Interesting fact

The 6 Denari coin from the Canton of Ticino, made of copper and weighing 1.55g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Switzerland. The coin was issued in 1841, just a few years after the country's federal constitution was adopted, and it reflects the efforts of the young Swiss Confederation to establish a uniform currency and monetary system. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it is now a rare and valuable collector's item, highly sought after by numismatists and historians interested in the history of Swiss currency.
