Switzerland 1926-B 10 rappen

from the Mountain Groan Collection

This type has been struck at the Bern mint since 1879. Production was interrupted during the two world wars. This is a common date but still worth more than recent issues. Prior to confederation in 1850, each Swiss canton issued its own coins.

Recorded mintage: 3,000,000.

Specification: 3 g, copper-nickel, 19.1 mm diameter, plain edge.

Catalog reference: KM 27.
