| Obverse description | The obverse presents a selection of important archaeological finds from the celebrated prehistoric cemetery at Hallstatt, rendered in detailed relief. Prominently featured are a ceremonial vessel in the form of a cow and calf, two skeletal remains, and decorative belt plate ornaments characteristic of the Hallstatt culture. These artifacts are arranged across the field in an evocative, museum-display composition illustrating the funerary traditions of the Iron Age period. The upper and lower registers bear the legend REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH and the denomination 20 EURO with the date 2025. |

| Additional information |
The third release in Austria's "Mysterious Cosmos" series, this coin continues a thematic program the Austrian Mint launched to explore ancient and non-Western knowledge systems — a deliberate pivot from the historical portraiture and architectural subjects that dominated Austrian commemorative silver for most of the twentieth century. Austria has run some of the most technically ambitious silver programs in European minting, and the Mysterious Cosmos issues have leaned heavily into that reputation.
KM#3393 is recent enough that secondary market data remains thin.
