AUSTRIAN PHILHARMONIC
|
IN 1989, the Austrian Mint launched their bullion coins with the Gold Philharmonic. The mint decided to expand its offerings with a 1 oz. Platinum version in 2016. The Platinum Philharmonic features the same artful design as the Gold and Silver Philharmonics which includes the image of the great pipe organ from the Vienna Musikverein’s Golden Hall on the obverse and a octet of instruments on the reverse side: a cello, four violins, a harp, a bassoon and an instrument that was developed for Viennese orchestral performances, the Vienna horn.

PLATINUM BRITANNIA 2018
|
The first ever Britannia platinum bullion coin struck in one ounce of 999.5 platinum. New for 2018, the obverse features a guilloche background design. The platinum version features the same depiction of “Britannia” that is on the silver and gold versions. “Britannia” first appeared on the Roman Emperor Hadrian’s coins, circa AD 119. The image was then brought back for the coinage of Charles II in 1672. This spirit of the British Isles has evolved over time. She has been shown with olive branch and owl for peace and wisdom, and with Corinthian helmet and shield for strength and courage, while her trident amid waves or rocky shores salutes Britain’s naval strength.
