tabbs Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 that's a very attractive coin! what's the material inside the ring? The ring, with the value and country name, is silver (Ag900). The pill in the middle is pure titanium. A similar one was issued the year before, featuring a microchip, a map, and "telecommunication" devices. The 2001 coin: http://www.muenze-oesterreich.at/e/mobilitaet.html The 2000 coin: http://www.muenze-oesterreich.at/e/millennium.html (English language version; click on the coins to get further info.) Interesting pieces indeed. What is also neat is that you can consider the collection complete if you have those two - or you may say that the niobium pieces continue the series :-) Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
