Swiss Gold Helvetias were minted at the Swiss National Mint in Bern from 1897 until 1936, with authorized restrikes following in 1947 and 1949. The obverse of these Swiss Gold coins depicts Helvetia, the female personification of Switzerland in the same way Lady Liberty is associated with the United States. This coin, sometimes referred to as a “Swiss Miss,” ceased being produced in 1936 due to the Great Depression. In modern times, these world coins have become more valuable for their Gold content than for their actual face value as legal tender.
