Description

The coin's design celebrates Austria's rich musical heritage, specifically the world-renowned Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. The obverse side features the Great Organ in Vienna's Golden Hall of the Musikverein (the concert hall where the Vienna Philharmonic performs), while the reverse displays an elegant arrangement of orchestral instruments, including a cello, violins, a harp, a Vienna horn, and a bassoon.

Crafted from 99.99% pure gold (24 karat), the Gold Philharmonic maintains exceptional quality and purity. It's available in several denominations: 1 ounce (with a face value of 100 euros), 1/2 ounce (50 euros), 1/4 ounce (25 euros), 1/10 ounce (10 euros), and 1/25 ounce (4 euros). Before the euro's introduction in 2002, the coins were denominated in Austrian schillings.

The Austrian Mint, with over 800 years of minting experience, ensures each coin meets rigorous quality standards. This commitment to craftsmanship, combined with the coin's cultural significance and pure gold content, has established the Gold Philharmonic as a favorite among investors and collectors throughout Europe and beyond. The coin's recognition grew significantly after it was named the world's best-selling gold coin in 1992, 1995, and 1996 by the World Gold Council.
