In the Helvetic Republic, in 1799, there were plans to introduce a decimal currency system based on the Bernese currency, with a Swiss franc corresponding to 6.6149 grams of fine silver, equivalent to 10 Batzen or 100 Rappen. These coins were not minted due to a shortage of silver during the period of the Napoleonic Wars.
The Frank was the currency of the Helvetian Republic from 1798, replacing the Thaler in Bern. The Helvetian Republic ceased issuing coins in 1803. Bern issued coins between 1808 and 1836. In 1850, the Swiss franc was introduced, with 1 Berne Frank = 1.4597 Swiss francs.
