Own a stunning piece of history and significance with the 1000 Schilling Austrian Gold Coin (AU). Struck by the Austrian Mint, the Austrian Shillings were the nation’s official currency, introduced in 1925. BOLD brings this historic gold coin to its former glory with an Almost Uncirculated (AU) condition, which on the coin grading scale ranges from 50 to 55, depicting slight wear with visible full details.
The obverse side of the 1000 Schilling Austrian Gold Coin features the Imperial eagle of the Austrian Empire. The other variant of the eagle was the Double-headed imperial eagle, which was also an emblem of the Austro-Hungarian empire. The eagle is designed by Martha Coufal-Hartl and depicts the inscription “REPUBLIK OSTERREICH” meaning ‘Republic of Austria,’ with the denomination “SCHILLING 1000.”
The reverse of the gold coin bears the official seal of Duke Friedrich II. This historically significant emblem is designed by Gertrude Simon. The inscriptions encircling the seal are “EINSETZUNG DER BABENBERGER 976-1976.” Since the coin is a nod to the noble dynasty known as the House of Babenberg, the inscription depicts their family name and seal.
