Additional information

Switzerland's federal yodelling festival — the Eidgenössisches Jodlerfest — rotates among host cities every three years and draws tens of thousands of participants. Swissmint has issued commemoratives tied to Swiss folk traditions with some regularity, and this piece falls squarely in that program. The .835 fineness is the same alloy used for Swiss circulation silver coinage prior to 1968, a deliberate nod to the material history of the franc itself.
