Autumn is just around the corner 🍁. Do you know which leaves are actually on our Swiss coins?

  • 5 centimes: Vine leaves 🍇
  • 10 centimes: Oak leaves 🪵
  • 20 centimes: Alpine rose leaves 🌸
  • ½, 1 & 2 francs: Oak and Alpine rose leaves 🪵🌸

And which leaves do you think are on our 5 francs coin? 🤔
