1/4 Oz Wiener Philharmoniker ATS Gold Coin

1/4 Oz Wiener Philharmoniker ATS Gold Coin

The 1/4 Oz Wiener Philharmoniker ATS gold coin is the quarter-ounce striking of the famous series with the original Schilling face value. It is made of pure gold with a fineness of 999.9/1000 Au, weighs 7.78 g (a quarter ounce) and comes from the Austrian mint Münze Österreich. It carries a face value of 500 ATS (Austrian Schilling).

Why choose the 1/4 Oz Wiener Philharmoniker ATS coin?

Coins with a face value in Austrian Schillings come from strikings before the introduction of the euro (1989–2001). For investors and collectors alike they therefore have, besides their gold value, a historical dimension – these are older vintages of the consistent, globally recognised motif of the Wiener Philharmoniker series.

The obverse shows the Great Organ of the Vienna Musikverein and the reverse the instruments of the Vienna Philharmonic. As a bullion coin it is supplied without a certificate – its authenticity is guaranteed by the renowned Austrian Mint and the instantly recognisable motif.

Investment gold as part of your portfolio

Physical gold has long been regarded as a stable store of value, independent of the banking system. The investor holds a tangible physical metal, which is why gold is used to diversify a portfolio and protect part of one's wealth against currency depreciation.

If you would like to compare different formats, take a look at gold coins as well as gold bars, which offer a lower premium per gram in larger weights.
