1/2 Schilling

Austria's half schilling was a product of post-war monetary reconstruction — the schilling system itself was introduced in 1924 specifically to replace the catastrophically devalued krone, which had lost roughly 14,000 times its prewar value by the time it was retired. The National Bank pegged the new currency to gold and issued fractional silver coinage to restore public confidence in everyday transactions.

The series ran only three years before the denomination was quietly discontinued, never revived.
