| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse features a boldly rendered Scythian animal-style composition in high relief, depicting a large feline predator — likely a lion or panther — in a coiled, predatory posture, its body twisted with powerful musculature and its head turned sharply. The creature's mane and body are articulated with characteristic Scythian curvilinear scroll motifs, faithfully reproducing the decorative idiom of ancient steppe goldsmithing. Additional zoomorphic elements and stylized foliage fill the field, creating a densely ornamented composition. The design is enclosed within a rope-pattern border with geometric hatching at the upper and lower rim. No legend or inscription appears on this face, allowing the sculptural imagery to command the entire field. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Part of the Austrian Mint's long-running "Gold of the Celts and Scythians" series, this issue draws on the extraordinary hoard discoveries made across the Eurasian steppe, particularly the kurgan burials of the Black Sea region where Scythian goldwork — produced by Greek craftsmen working to nomadic commission — has been excavated since the 18th century. Catherine the Great established the Hermitage's first dedicated antiquities collection largely around pieces looted from these burial mounds under imperial decree.
The .986 fineness is the Mint's house standard for this series, fractionally above the more common .9999 used elsewhere in their bullion range.
