The Austrian Mint was first mentioned in a document as early as 1397. As a long-established mint, it produces a wide range of precious metal investment and collectible products. The range includes commemorative, gift and collector coins. In addition, this precious metal manufacturer produces high-quality gold bars and investment coins.
The gold coin "Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra" was first traded in October 1989. At the beginning only denominations of 1 ounce and 1/4 ounce were minted. From 1991, the denomination of Vienna Philharmonic gold coins was expanded to 1/10 ounce, and in 1994 1/2 ounce coins were added to the range. From 2008 onwards it was expanded to include the 1 ounce silver coin of the Vienna Philharmonic.
