Obverse lettering 50 EURO 2011 KUNSTHAUS REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH
Reverse description The reverse, engraved by Herbert Wähner, features a bold close-up of a crested Renaissance armoured helmet shown in three-quarter view, its surface decorated with intricate embossed scrollwork and a grotesque mask on the chin guard, characteristic of sixteenth-century Styrian armourers' craft. The curved legend LANDES·ZEUGHAUS GRAZ is inscribed along the left and lower rim in incuse Latin lettering, referencing the world-renowned Graz Arsenal, home to one of the largest preserved collections of historic arms and armour. The field is plain, allowing the finely worked relief of the helmet to dominate the composition.
