Austrian Philharmonic 1 oz Gold Coin
- In 1989, Austrian Gold Philharmonic coins debuted with a 1 oz. coin and a ¼ oz. coin. Both coins had face values listed in Austrian Shillings. As of 2002, these coins have a face value in euros when Austria joined the European Union. Formed in 1842, the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra is considered by many to be one of the greatest orchestras in the world and this beautiful gold coin honors that legacy. Designed by Austrian Mint Chief Engraver Thomas Posendorfer, the Gold Philharmonic series was the world’s best selling gold coins in the early to mid-1990s. The playful lyricism of the design and intricate detailing make this gold coin highly desirable and an exceptional work of art.
