History & Notable Facts
This 1984 Austrian 1000 Schilling coin was one of several European commemoratives struck for the Los Angeles Olympics, a nod to international solidarity that year despite the host being an ocean away.
Weighing in at 31.1 grams of pure gold, it features the Austrian coat of arms on the obverse and the Olympic flame on the reverse, with inscriptions in German that translate to "Los Angeles 1984." The edge is reeded, a standard for security in bullion issues. Mintage figures are murky; official records from the Austrian Mint aren't always reliable for these pieces.
Some enthusiasts claim it brings athletic luck, but that's just wishful thinking. After all, I've seen plenty of these without anyone winning a medal.
