A collection of musical instruments is featured on the reverse of 2023 Austrian Silver Philharmonic Coins. This design element has a cello, four violins, a bassoon, a harp, and a horn in homage to the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.
The Austrian Silver Philharmonic Coin, which was introduced in 2006, proved an instant hit throughout Europe. The British Britannia was the only other significant silver bullion coin initiative at the time in Europe.
The Austrian Silver Philharmonic continues to have a significant presence in the global and North American bullion markets today. The obverse and reverse of the silver coins are always the same, using the 1989 designs for the gold coins by Thomas Pesendorfer.
I hope to see you again soon!
