I'll be exchanging some old money at the Swiss National Bank today. In reviewing their policies, I found this priceless quote:
"The 2-centime coins minted between 1948 and 1974 were recalled as per 1 January 1978. Until 30 June 1979 the Swiss Federal Cash Office (Eidgenössische Staatskasse) exchanged them at face value. The worthless 2-centime coins might possibly have collector's value. Unlike numismatists, antique shops or banks, the SNB does not deal in worthless coins."

Since the Swiss centime equivalents are officially called "Rappen," would it be correct to say that the Swiss National Bank does not give a Rapp???
<< <i>More like "demonized"!!!!!
