| Beschrijving voorzijde | 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. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a dramatic Ice Age hunting scene in which a group of Homo sapiens hunters, armed with flaming torches and spears, are shown attacking a large woolly mammoth. The figures are rendered in dynamic, high-relief style conveying motion and tension, set against a sparse, primordial landscape. The composition emphasizes the primal confrontation between early humans and megafauna, characteristic of the Upper Palaeolithic era. Fine detail is applied to the hunters' postures and the mammoth's anatomy, reflecting the Austrian Mint's tradition of high artistic quality in commemorative silver issues. The reverse field is otherwise unlettered, allowing the figurative scene to dominate. |
