The Commemorative Coin: A splendid piece of Switzerland
The commemorative coins of Switzerland are designed by important native artists. Elegant, valuable and timeless, they epitomize the country's solid cultural heritage. As tasteful collectors' pieces available at attractive prices, they are also extremely popular. The commemorative coins have a legal face value and are minted in limited series. The net profit from their sales is used by the Confederation to promote cultural projects in Switzerland. Mr. Levy will discuss his coin design which incorporates the image of the Chillon Castle.
