Considering the task of engraving an artistic craft, Thomas Pesendorfer is a world renowned engraver for the Austrian Mint. Pesendorfer created the Austrian Philharmonic coins in 1989 and takes great pride in his work as an engraver. Being offered a job at the Austrian Mint is on the bucket list of every Austrian engraver and Thomas Pesendorfer was offered that honor many years back. In 1989, the Austrian Mint used his iconic design to start the Gold Philharmonic collection. Little did they know the world-wide attention they would receive for these coins and for the silver coins thereafter. Actually, the Austrian Silver Philharmonic series is the first European bullion coin to represent the Euro. Holding the title of most popular bullion coin in Europe can be a difficult and challenging job but the Silver Philharmonic makes that accomplishment look effortless.
The 2020 Austrian Silver Philharmonic carries a beautifully struck brilliant uncirculated finish and is guaranteed to weigh one troy ounce of .999 silver. Replicating the obverse of the Gold Philharmonic series, the famous pipe organ that is in the concert hall of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra is intricately displayed on the obverse of the silver coin. The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra has been considered the best worldwide since 1842, when it was first founded. The obverse is also stamped with the Republic of Austria and one ounce of pure silver. The reverse contains a gothic font that is translated into Vienna Philharmonic. An incredible array of varietal instruments are also featured, including the harp, bassoon, flute, cello, and violin. Never changing these beloved designs, the Austrian Mint takes great pride in producing a coin that not only brings attention the the country but also honors a very important piece of Austria's history, the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.
