The story began in the year 1194, during the time of the third crusade. A royal feud broke out between Duke Leopold V of Austria and King Richard “The Lionheart” of England. As King Richard I was returning home through Europe, he was captured by Duke Leopold’s men and imprisoned in the Castle of Durnstein in Ostarrichi, as Austria was then known. To pay for his freedom, King Richard was forced to raise a huge ransom of 35 tons of silver through extreme taxation of his people. In turn, Leopold V used part of this ransom to establish the original Mint of Vienna and strike its first silver coins.

Now, on the 825th anniversary of this historic event, the Austrian Mint has released the first of a limited-edition, 3-coin series commemorating its creation. The 2019 Austrian 1 oz Silver Leopold V features Duke Leopold in full body armor on the reverse. A modern replica of his official seal, struck on the Mint’s first coins, is displayed on the obverse. This exquisite legal tender coin is struck in .999 pure silver with a maximum worldwide mintage of just 100,000. These coins are sure to be highly sought after by collectors, history buffs, and investors all over the world. So don’t wait – order your coin today while they are available!
