<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 72086, member: 39&quot;]Let me just add that &quot;Confoederatio Helvetica&quot; is Latin. Not because the Swiss are so fond of ancient languages <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> but because they have four official languages, three &quot;major&quot; ones (de-fr-it) and Romansh.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is also the reason why the Swiss coins have just an &quot;Fr&quot; on the franken coins, and the small pieces have no &quot;unit name&quot; at all: If they had to put something like &quot;10 Rappen - Centimes - Centesimi&quot; on all those coins, the pieces would not look neat ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
