Five Schilling 1965, Coin from Austria (demonetised 1969)
CoinFive Schilling 1965

The Five Schilling coin was a circulating denomination of the Austrian Schilling, which was restored as the currency of the Republic of Austria when the republic itself was restored after World War II in 1945. Between 1947 and 1952, coins in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50 groschen; and 1, 2, and 5 schilling were introduced. The first type of 5 Schilling coins was in aluminium, but after only two issues it was upgraded to silver (64% silver, 36% copper) - later debased again to CuproNickel (copper-nickel).

With the change of composition came also a change of the design. The new reverse was designed by Josef Köblinger, and the obverse by Hans Köttenstorfer.

The 5 Schilling coins made from silver were demonetised on 30 September 1969.

Reverse
Austria / Five Schilling 1965 - reverse photo

Within a plain rim, the reverse of the coin shows the shield from the Coat of Arms of Austria. It is divided horizontally into three parts; the upper and the lower thirds have a background of thin vertical lines, while the centre is plain, which is known as "heraldic hatching" and indicates colour - the vertical lines are for red, and no lines are for white. Thus, it displays the colours of the flag of Austria - red-white-red.

Around below, two olive branches. Above the shield, a large numeral 5 for the value; around above, the denomination SCHILLING.

The date of issue, 1965, is small and is divided by the shield.
