Each of the 1998 1 oz Austrian Gold Philharmonic Coins available here comes with a protective plastic flip. The 1998 Gold Philharmonic had a total mintage that was among the higher-minted coins in the 1990s. Demand for the coins would fall for consecutive years over the course of the next decade.

One notable feature of the 1998 Austrian Gold Philharmonic is the face value. From 1989 to 2001, the Gold Philharmonic was originally issued with denominations in the Austrian schilling. Starting in 2002, the denomination switched to Euros.
