ISTANBUL (AA) - The Swiss government will produce about 100,000 pieces of 20-franc silver commemorative coin with tennis player Roger Federer's image on it.

Federer is the 20-time Grand Slam champion.
The heads side of the coin shows Federer face with tennis racket.
The coins will be released in January.
