Austrian new edition coins
The crown, gulden and ducat gold coins of Franz Joseph I are popular with investors for their historical appearance and wide range of weights. Crown coins were minted in Austria-Hungary from 1892, when they replaced the guilder coins as part of the currency reform. Since then, there have been gold 10 and 20 kroner coins. A third coin followed a few years later, when the 60th anniversary of the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph was celebrated in 1908. On this occasion, a gold coin worth 100 crowns was minted.

The crowns were not officially minted until 1915, hence the date of issue on the current Münze Österreich reprints. The ducat coins were minted from the mid-16th century onwards, and the 1 ducat and 4 ducat mintages now in use bear the year 1915, which is the year the coins were last minted.
How much is a gold coin worth?
The market price of gold coins is based solely on the price of gold on world exchanges. For specific commemorative and collectible coins, the total number of coins in circulation also plays a role.
How can I verify the authenticity of gold coins?
The authenticity of investment gold is confirmed by security features. Each investment gold coin usually bears a unique stamp or hallmark. This may contain information about the manufacturer, weight, purity of the gold and a unique serial number that allows for unambiguous identification.
