| Beschrijving voorzijde | Portrait bust of Austrian Expressionist painter Oskar Kokoschka facing slightly left, rendered in high relief with bold, characterful modelling evoking the artist's own expressive style. The engraver's signature KUGLER appears incuse at the lower left of the bust. The circular legend REPUBLIK OSTERREICH runs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 500 SCHILLING and date 1990 are inscribed along the lower arc. The initials OK, referencing the honoree, appear to the right of the portrait in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued the year Kokoschka would have turned 104, this coin appeared just over a decade after his death in 1980 — long enough for Austrian cultural institutions to begin reassessing a figure the Nazi regime had branded a "degenerate artist" in 1937, forcing his permanent exile from Europe to Britain. Kokoschka never held Austrian citizenship again during his lifetime, eventually naturalizing as British in 1946.
The Austrian commemorative 500-Schilling series of this period consistently used .925 silver, making these among the finer-alloy issues in the postwar Austrian program.
