Minted by the Austrian Mint in Vienna, the 1/10 ounce Philharmonic is a widely owned gold bullion coin. Minted at the historic Austrian Mint in Vienna, internationally famous for producing exceptional gold coins for more than 800 years, the Philharmonic is one of the most gorgeous and coveted of all modern gold bullion coins. Interesting enough, the Austrian Mint was established in 1194 at the court of the Badenberg dukes in Vienna to coin silver from the ransom of the English King Richard I, "Richard the Lionheart."
