hello people today I'm going to show you the coins of Switzerland now these are
currently circulating coins or at least most of them except for one which I will
show you okay that is this five sentiments now you should know that the
one or two sentiments are no longer legal tender they were taken out two
centimetres in 1978 and the one weapon in 19 2007 yep this one is also no
longer legal tender and any of the other coins of out sides of this series except
for a 5 franc commemorative coins that includes all silver coins are no longer
legal tender okay here we have the five rapin as you can say they all have a
floral design
okay this aluminium-bronze by wrapping is the current coin issued this is
grapes this is looks like oak or whatever not too familiar with northern
plants ten cent ten wrapping 10 centimetres 20 centimetres 20 wrapping
okay des tend to roughen the 5 franc all copper nickel so she conceived of ten
and a half of pretty much similar size and it can be confused except for the
design okay now this one has flowers no no idea
what planet is this is two types of plants looks like
typo so oak another oak and some over plant also two types of plants looks
the same as the one Frank - Frank's also the same the five francs is coat of arms
of Switzerland and here is the commemorative 5 franc Bank
okay we look at the reverse this has that allegorical figure of Liberty which
is done on allegory allegory means meets just a metaphor of real word issues and
occurrences this is supposed to represent our French Swiss democracy
okay it's the same on the five ten twenty rapping I'm the one and a half
one and two is a Helvetia which represents suits on and you can uh know
that Helvetia tribe is a celtic tribe that inhabited Switzerland I don't think
was a Germanic tribe that's my research done okay and the five Frank you have a
herdsman and this is supposed to be William Tell who is a folk legend who
fought against Burgundians in around about 1474 ran that period and you're
supposed to have helped defeat them Burgundians
okay so you can look him up William Tell it's quite quite interesting and your
commemorative five Frank represents the Battle of Merton Melton
merton against the boom where Gandhi answers well about 500 years ago and
this is part of the wars helped establish Swiss independence yeah they
called the bullet Burgundian was not in the boot the Duchy of Burgundy was
absorbed into France yeah because I wasted too much money in too much me
okay so these are the coins off current Switzerland and go to Switzerland you
can use them except for the copper nickel foil wrapping so I hope you like
this video and let me know if you have switz coins and what you think of these
designs okay thank you very much and have a nice day
