| Obverse lettering | BURG LOCKENHAUS REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH 500 SCHILLING 1999 |
| Reverse description | Two armoured medieval knights on horseback riding to the left, each wearing chainmail and conical helmets and carrying lances bearing heraldic pennants with cross motifs. The riders fill the central and right portions of the field in a bold, stylized relief reminiscent of medieval manuscript illumination. In the left background, a schematic rendering of a fortified castle with towers and arched openings evokes the Burg Lockenhaus fortress. The polished field contrasts with the finely detailed figural engraving, giving the composition a dynamic, historical character. No legends appear on the reverse. |
