Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Wiener Secession 50 Schilling coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the artistic style of the Vienna Secession movement, which was a group of artists and architects who sought to break away from traditional academic art and embrace a more modern, expressive style. The coin's design, created by artist Josef Hoffmann, features a stylized image of a woman surrounded by flowing lines and geometric shapes, which reflects the movement's emphasis on simplicity, functionality, and beauty.
