Historical background
SWITZERLAND - CANTON OF ST. GALLEN
The coinage of Saint-Gall is divided into two distinct parts: the coinage of the Abbey of Saint-Gall which was founded in 947 and which is one of the oldest in Switzerland and the coinage of the canton of Saint-Gall. . If the coinage of the abbey began in 1240, that of the canton did not begin before the end of the 14th century. The city of Saint-Gall became free in 1357 and was separated from the abbey in 1457.
