| Obverse description | A hatted man in traditional Austrian folk dress stands at left, facing slightly right, playing a button accordion; to his right, a seated woman in peasant attire bends forward hollowing out a large pumpkin. The lower field is filled with whole and halved pumpkins rendered in fine relief, evoking the harvest traditions of the Austrian hill country. The composition is unlettered, with no legend or inscription in the field, the entire surface devoted to the genre scene. |

| Reverse description | A panoramic view of the Austrian hill country fills the field, depicting gently rolling cultivated farmland with striped fields in the foreground and pumpkins and foliage at lower left. A traditional windmill rises at centre-left, while a prominent Baroque monastery or manor complex with domed towers occupies the right middle ground. The legend REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH arcs across the upper field in bold stylised lettering, and the denomination 500 SCHILLING with the date 1995 appears along the lower rim. |
