What currency is used in Switzerland?
Franc
The Swiss franc (ISO code: CHF or 756), which appreciated significantly against the new European currency from April to September 2000, remains one of the world's strongest currencies, worth today around five-sixths of a euro. The Swiss franc is used in Switzerland and in Liechtenstein. Liechtenstein retains the ability to mint its own currency, the Liechtenstein franc, which it does from time to time for commemorative or emergency purposes.

In 1798, the Helvetic Republic introduced the "franc", a currency based on the Berne thaler, subdivided into 10 "batzen" or 100 "centimes". The Swiss franc was equal to grams of pure silver or French francs.
