About Swiss Coins Yodel-ay-he hoo! My name is Niklas. In Switzerland, there are three primary languages spoken and their coins have different names depending on which language you speak! In German, it is the Franken and Rappen; in French, it is the Franc and Centimes; and in Italian, it is the Franco and Centesimi! The 5 Rappen coin has grape vines on it. Switzerland grows wine invineyards in Valais (Wallis) and Vaud (Waadt) in the south of Switzerland. |
