Description from the seller

Switzerland. Bern. 1/2 Franc. 1959.

Value: 1/2 Franc.
- Year: 1959.
Reign: No monarch (Swiss Confederation).
Inscriptions: Obverse: HELVETIA, surrounded by 22 stars. Reverse: 1/2 Fr. 1959 B inside a wreath of leaves.
- Grade: NGC MS62.

Silver coin minted in Bern by the Swiss Confederation. The obverse depicts the figure of Helvetia standing, with a lance and shield, an allegorical symbol of the Swiss nation, surrounded by a garland of stars representing the cantons. The reverse shows the face value, date, and mint mark within a vegetal crown. A common circulation piece but with high numismatic value in uncirculated grades like this MS62, with original luster and well-defined details.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to make it absolutely clear that I ship from Spain. This means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (for example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs, and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and is completely out of our control. Thank you for your understanding.
