| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of Switzerland's millennium commemorative program, this piece draws on the longstanding Swiss tradition of gold federal shooting festival francs — a series that began in 1855 and occupies a distinct and obsessively catalogued corner of Helvetic numismatics. The "Messias" designation refers to Handel's oratorio, performed at celebratory events marking the year 2000.
The .900 fine standard mirrors the fineness used across the nineteenth-century Latin Monetary Union coinage, a deliberate continuity Switzerland maintained long after the LMU's 1927 dissolution.
