The 1990s brought a great deal of turmoil to the mintage of 1 oz Austrian Gold Philharmonic Coins. The decade started with a jump in demand, with the 1990 coin offering a mintage more than 130,000 coins higher than the 1989 debut for the series.
From there, the 1990s was a rollercoaster of rising demand and sinking interest. The series dropped sharply in 1991, only to rise sharply in 1992. The 1993-1994 issues saw dropping demand before the series peaked in the 1990s at 645,500 coins in 1995. From here, mintage followed a general downward trajectory through the end of the decade and century.
For the obverse design of the 1995 1 oz Gold Philharmonic Coin, Thomas Pesendorfer’s depiction of the pipe organ in the Golden Concert Hall is featured. The hall is the primary performance site of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and is located within the Musikverein.
In the reverse design element of 1995 Austrian Gold Philharmonic Coins, you will find an image of musical instruments. These instruments are clustered around a cello at the center, with violins flanking the cello as a horn, a bassoon, and a harp fill the background design element.
These 1995 1 oz Austrian Gold Philharmonic Coins are available to you with individual protective flips. The mintage of more than 645,000 coins in 1995 was not matched in the decade and the demand for the coins sank to a low after this of 230,700 coins in 1999.
