The brass outer ring bears the multilingual legend PRUEBA * TRIAL * ESSAI * PROBE, separated by five-pointed stars, with CONFOEDERATIO HELVETICA inscribed along the lower arc of the ring. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Switzerland never joined the Eurozone and has no plans to do so, but the mint at Bern produced a small run of Euro-denomination trial pieces in 2005 — almost certainly for vending machine and coin-operated equipment manufacturers who needed dimensionally accurate test tokens before the Swiss market could reliably accommodate Euro-accepting hardware. The 21g weight exceeds the actual 1 Euro coin by roughly 13%, suggesting this was not a dimensional clone but a proprietary test specification.
