| Reverse description | The copper-nickel centre depicts a detailed frontal view of the Hofburg Palace in Vienna, the seat of Austrian federal authority, rendered in fine architectural relief. In the lower foreground, a semicircular motif incorporates the EU flag's circle of twelve stars alongside wavy ribbon elements symbolising European unity. The aluminium bronze outer ring bears the legend 'EU PRÄSIDENTSCHAFT ÖSTERREICH 1998' distributed around the circumference, commemorating Austria's presidency of the Council of the European Union. A small heraldic eagle device appears at the top of the ring above the palace facade. |
