Hi,

in addition to the previous comments: 'Stutz' is also used as a term
for money, in particular the 1 Swiss franc coin – comparable to the
term 'bucks' / '1 buck' for dollars. Therefore a Swiss newspaper also
had a promotion called 'Gottfried Stutz' (I'm not sure if they used an
alternative spelling) when they sold their paper for 1 CHF.
