Commemorate the Historic Swiss Shooting Festival
Switzerland’s Schützenfest is an annual shooting festival held in a different canton, or state, each year. Dating back to medieval times, the festival’s main feature is a target shooting competition, introduced as a way of encouraging citizens to increase and maintain skills that become invaluable in times of war.
Features
- High Quality and Beautiful Designs: Each piece contains one-half ounce of 99.99% pure gold and Shooting Thalers are well-known for their beautiful and intricate designs depicting marksmanship, heraldry, Swiss patriotism, and various cantonal themes.
- Limited Mintage: Shooting Thalers sell out every year at the Swiss Mint, making this coin a sought-after commodity in the secondary market.
Design
On the obverse, Victory stands with a rife while offering a laurel wreath to the winner of the shooting competition. Above her, the coin announces the city of Stans, capital city of the Swiss canton of Nidwalden, as the location for the 2018 festival.
The reverse displays the coins legal-tender value within a wreath of oak and laurel leaves, along with a pair of crossed rifles.
