Artistic motif: The motif of time is depicted on the banknote by a conductor’s hand holding a baton, symbolizing the setting of tempo. Additionally, the banknote features a globe with marked time zones, highlighting the international dimension of Swiss talent for organization and precision. The tunnels symbolize the complex, perfectly functioning railway network for which Switzerland is known worldwide.
Security features: The 10-franc banknote is equipped with advanced safeguards that ensure its authenticity and resistance to counterfeiting. Among them are:
Test globe: in the center of the banknote there is a shimmering globe that changes color and shows a golden arc when tilted.
Security strip: located in the lower part of the banknote, it shows red and green digits that move in opposite directions when tilted.
Perforated cross: fine perforations form the shape of the Swiss cross, which becomes visible when the banknote is held up to the light.
Watermark: the banknote has two watermarks — the Swiss flag and a globe — which are visible when the banknote is backlit.
UV effect: under ultraviolet light, a hidden globe appears and fibers glow in various colors, increasing the security of the banknote.
Elements for the blind: raised lines on the edges of the banknote make it easier for blind users to recognize it.
Color scheme: The 10-franc banknote is characterized by a fresh yellow color scheme that reflects the motif of time and precision. This color helps to quickly distinguish denominations and enhances its aesthetic qualities.
Multi-level security: The banknote also contains other advanced security features, such as microtext in Switzerland’s four national languages, elements visible only under infrared light, and an optical effect in which different graphics change depending on the viewing angle. Serial numbers are printed in two places, in different fonts, which further complicates counterfeiting.
