| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large Swiss federal cross occupies the centre of the field, incuse against a lightly striated background. Surrounding the cross in a continuous border are the heraldic shields of the twenty-two Swiss cantons, each rendered in fine relief detail. Below the cross, the denomination and date are inscribed in two lines: 1 ECU ARGENT above 1969. Beneath the date, the fineness mark 0.835 and the mint mark HF appear in small characters at the lower centre of the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Huguenin Frères of Le Locle has been striking medals and fantasy pieces for well over a century, and this écu falls squarely in their tradition of privately issued silver pieces that occupy the ambiguous space between commemorative medal and notgeld-adjacent token. Neuchâtel canton never issued circulating coinage under its own authority in the modern Swiss federal period — that right consolidated to Bern in 1850 — so pieces like this carry no monetary mandate whatsoever.
The X# prefix in Krause confirms its classification as a non-circulating local issue. Collectors should note Huguenin produced multiple écu types across different years, and series attribution without the specific reference number invites misidentification.
