10 Austrian Schilling coin

10 Austrian Schilling (Issued 2001)

The ten-schilling coin was one of the higher circulating denominations of Austria’s pre-euro currency, struck in a copper-nickel alloy and in use until the euro changeover in 2002. It is a substantial, silver-coloured coin with a milled edge, a common piece in everyday Austrian pockets.

On the obverse, the coin depicts a woman in the traditional costume of the Wachau region, wearing the local headdress, a much-loved image on Austrian coinage, with the value “10 SCHILLING” alongside.

On the reverse appears the single-headed Austrian eagle of the Republic encircled by the coats of arms of the nine Austrian federal provinces, with the legend “REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH” and the year of striking.
