This is a great change to an incredible series of bullion coins! Beginning in 1989, the Austrian Mint started a series of gold bullion coins with the theme of the Vienna Philharmonic, a world renowned orchestra based out of the Musikverein in Vienna. Composed of 1 oz. of .9999 fine gold, it was a high quality coin made for the bullion stacker. This bullion series grew in popularity, increasing greatly in sales over the years until these coins were the primary source of bullion stacking throughout much of Europe. Changes were made over the years, such a switch in denomination in 2002 from 2,000 Austrian Shillings to 100 Euros. Later, in 2008, the Austrian Mint began to produce 1 oz. .999 silver coins with the same theme. With a denomination of 1.5 Euros, they were meant as a more affordable method of stacking, and as a way for bullion stackers develop a distribution of metals. With the release of this coin, sales skyrocketed even further and this coin soon became the go to for many European and Asian silver stackers.

Geared for stackers to broaden their range of metals even further, this is a beautiful coin that continues the theme of the Vienna Philharmonic.
