The Austrian Philharmonic Gold Coin is the most sought after gold bullion coin in Europe and the rest of the world. Gold bullion coin investors looking to buy .9999 fine (99.99% pure) gold coins should consider the 1 ounce Austrian Philharmonics, sometimes called Vienna Philharmonics. They are among the most beautiful gold bullion coins minted. Struck by the Austrian Mint in the mid-1990s, Philharmonics were among the best selling gold bullion coins in the world. The obverse depicts the great organ in the Golden Hall in Vienna's Musikverein Concert Hall, the home of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. Also stamped on the obverse on the current coin is the face value of 100 Euros, the year of mintage, the purity (.9999 fine) and the weight (one ounce). The reverse of the Philharmonic gold coin shows an array of musical instruments, keeping with the theme of the gold coin. The Austrian Philharmonic Gold Coin is refined by the Austrian Mint.
