To the left, the legend REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH, the denomination 500 SCHILLING, and the date 1991 are arranged vertically in a distinctive Art Nouveau-inspired typographic style with interlocking letterforms. Böhm's facsimile signature appears in cursive script below his portrait, and the engraver's name H. WÄHNER is incused at the lower left. The coin is framed by a decorative inner border of small circular bosses. |
