1927 21.17 gram Gold Austrian 100 Schilling Coin

Up for bidding is the 1927 21.17 Gram Gold Austrian 100 Schilling Gold Coin minted by the Austrian Mint.

The Austrian 100 Schilling gold coins were issued between 1926 and 1934. Since these coins are over 50 years old, their condition varies, and the minting techniques of the time were not as precise as today. As a result, the coins we offer have a tolerance of up to 1% for both weight and purity, which is standard for coins of this era.

According to the original specifications, each gold Austrian 100 Schilling coin contains 21.17 grams of gold within a total weight of 23.52 grams, with a gold purity of 90%. Minor variations in weight and purity are to be expected due to the less advanced production techniques of the past and the wear and tear from these coins having circulated extensively over time. Given their age and usage, such deviations are considered normal. Coins falling within this 1% purity and weight tolerance are considered normal and will not be exchanged.

Only 68,746 copies of the 1927 Austrian 100 Schilling were ever produced. Thus, it would make an excellent collectible.
