Obverse description A finely detailed female figure rendered in high relief occupies the central field, her eyes closed in serene repose as she cradles a marigold bloom in her cupped hands. Her flowing hair fans outward across the field, intertwined with delicately engraved butterflies and blossoms in an Art Nouveau-inspired composition. The legend REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH arcs along the left periphery, while the denomination 10 EURO appears at lower right, and the date 2022 is inscribed at upper right.

Additional information

Part of the Austrian Mint's "Blumenkinder" (Flower Children) series, this issue belongs to a collector-focused program pairing botanical subjects with enamel-finish copper planchets — a format the Austrian Mint has refined over successive annual releases to compete in the crowded European commemorative market. The marigold, or Tagetes, carries a long association with Day of the Dead observances in Mexico, though in the Alpine tradition it signals the end of summer cattle drives.

KM#3345 was struck as a non-circulating legal tender piece with no realistic transactional role — the copper composition and face value bear no meaningful relationship to production cost.
