Summary
[edit]Description |
The obverse of a 25 euro commemorative coin released in Austria in 2004. The obverse of the coin shows an historical and a modern locomotive, representing the technical development in locomotive construction between the years 1854 and 2004. This side depicts the “Taurus”, a high performance locomotive from the construction series 1016, while the reverse (not shown here) showed the first functional Alpine locomotive constructed by Wilhelm Freiherr von Engerth. The coin has a silver ring and the colour of the niobium “pill” is green, reflecting the land through which the train travels. The image is also used in Locomotive. |
