Austria 10 Corona Gold Coin: product overview
The empire’s gold-standard currency
Austria-Hungary introduced the krone or korona currency in 1892 as part of its move to a gold standard. The names differed across the empire, while gold denominations included ten, twenty and one hundred crowns. This historical framework explains the denomination; it does not establish that a modern restrike was physically made in the date shown on its dies.
