In 1970–1971, Pfund won the currency design contest, hosted by the Swiss National Bank, for the design of a new series of bank notes. However another design was printed.

Pfund is also credited with the creation of the last version of the French franc, as well as a series of the Euro, and the 2003 Swiss passport.

Pfund died on 16 March 2024, at the age of 80[1] from complications following an infection.[2] He was buried at the Cimetière des Rois, which is considered the Panthéon of Geneva.
