New switzerland currency

You're referring to the recent changes in Switzerland's currency!

As of January 1, 2020, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) introduced a new series of banknotes and coins to replace the existing ones. The new currency is called the "Swiss franc" (CHF), and it features updated designs and security features.

Here are the key changes:

Banknotes:

  1. CHF 10: Features Albert Einstein, a renowned Swiss physicist and philosopher.
  2. CHF 20: Features Charles Ferdinand Ramuz, a Swiss writer and composer.
  3. CHF 50: Features Carl Spitteler, a Swiss poet and writer.
  4. CHF 100: Features Guillaume-Henri Dufour, a Swiss general and cartographer.

Coins:

  1. CHF 5: Features a new design featuring the Swiss Federal Charter, a symbol of Swiss independence.
  2. CHF 10: Features a new design featuring the Swiss Alps, a symbol of Switzerland's natural beauty.
  3. CHF 20: Features a new design featuring the Swiss Federal Palace, a symbol of Swiss democracy.

The new currency features advanced security features, such as holograms, microprinting, and color-shifting ink, to prevent counterfeiting.

The old currency, featuring the likes of Wilhelm Tell and the Swiss Alps, is still valid and can be exchanged for the new currency at banks and other financial institutions.

I hope that helps!
