ANGSTER
1804
Interesting fact
The Angster 1804 coin was minted during a time of economic hardship in Switzerland, particularly in the Canton of Zug. The coin was made of copper, which was a more affordable material than other metals, and it was designed to be easily distinguishable from other coins in circulation. Despite its humble origins, the Angster 1804 coin has become a sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
