| Obverse description | The obverse features a large woolly mammoth rendered in profile, dominating the central field with naturalistic detail. In the foreground, a mammoth skull with elongated curved tusks is depicted, underscoring the paleontological theme of the series. A schematic timeline of the Quaternary period is incorporated into the design, providing geological context. The peripheral legend reads '2015 REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH 20 EURO' along with the inscription '2,6 MIO QUARTÄR', referencing the 2.6 million-year span of the Quaternary. The overall composition reflects a high-relief artistic style consistent with Austrian Mint commemorative coinage. |
