It was back in 1942 when the Swiss first struck a gold coin as legal tender internationally recognized. These coins were known as the Swiss Franc gold coin and were loved by collectors and gold investors anywhere around the globe. Today these coins are still being produced on an annual basis and collectors want to get their hands on them simply for their beauty.
At the same time, investors from around the globe love this small gold coin because it si so easy for them to hoard away stockpiles of gold. Before the Swiss Franc gold coin was introduced, it was already being minted under the name of the Swiss Miss series which had been available from 1897 until 1935. Today though, it is a piece of genuine legal tender in which every single coin contains no less then 0.1867 troy ounces of pure gold.
The obverse side of the coin depicts the Swiss Miss in the foreground and the Alps in the background. On the reverse you will find the date, denomination as well as the official Swiss Cross. They are very popular and recognized around the globe. Their small size and light weight makes them perfect for private collections where anyone is able to hold on to stockpiles of gold quietly and without having to report and purchase or sale in most countries.
While there are a number of gold coins being printed all over the world, most of them are a minimum of 1 troy ounce and some of them are as much as 1 kilogram in weight. Not all of these gold coins are considered to be legal tender, but the Swiss Franc gold coin is and has been considered to be the smallest gold coin in production today; anywhere in the world. It is a definite must have for any collector or investor of coins and precious metals.
