Surrounding the central denomination are nine heraldic shields representing the nine provinces (Bundesländer) of Austria, arranged in a circular composition. The circular legend reads '· REPUBLIK · ÖSTERREICH ·' around the outer border, interrupted at intervals by the provincial shields. The design, executed by Edwin Grienauer, presents a clean, emblematic composition with well-defined relief on all shield devices. |

| Additional information |
Julius Raab, Austrian Chancellor from 1953 to 1961, was the principal Austrian negotiator of the 1955 State Treaty that ended the post-war Allied occupation and restored full sovereignty to Austria. His willingness to accept permanent neutrality as the price of that agreement — a concession that split opinion domestically — proved decisive in breaking a decade of four-power deadlock. The commemorative was struck ten years after his death in 1964.
