- SWITZERLAND. Helvetian Republic. 40 Batzen, 1798-S. NGC MS-62. Dav-1771; KM-A4.1. A coin struck the first year Switzerland had been forced into a Republican form of government by invading Napoleonic forces, and historically significant as such. Much as the local denizens resented the foreign meddling by the French, one can say that the seeds of a Swiss national identity began the year this coin was struck, or more specifically, after April 14, 1798 when the Helvetian Republic was declared "one and indivisible" by the cantonal assembly. Struck at the Basel mint. 2 small edge flaws, sharply struck with deep attractive tone. Estimate: $1,500 - $2,000. NGC MS-62. Click here for certification details from NGC.
