Where it came from
The 2005 Austrian 5 Euro coin, themed 'Peace and Freedom,' was minted to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II and the 50th anniversary of the Austrian State Treaty. These milestones marked Austria's return to sovereignty and the country's long-standing commitment to neutrality and peaceful international relations following the devastation of the mid-20th century.
The coin features a design by Herbert Wähner, a noted Austrian medalist whose work often highlights historical and cultural milestones. His design focuses on imagery representing the restoration of the republic and the subsequent era of stability. Upon its release, the coin was well-received by collectors for its polished finish and its somber, reflective nod to the dual anniversaries that defined contemporary Austrian identity.
