Helvetia is a significant allegorical figure in Swiss culture, representing the Swiss Confederation. She embodies the spirit of Switzerland and its values, much like other national personifications such as Britannia for the United Kingdom or Marianne for France. Helvetia’s name is derived from Helvetia, the Latin name for the region inhabited by the ancient Helvetii tribe, which later became part of modern-day Switzerland. Today, 1922 20 Francs Swiss Gold Coins are available from JM Bullion.
