Celebrating both Easter and the 300th anniversary of the manufacture of porcelain in Vienna, the Easter Bunny coin features a depiction of a very special rabbit.

Originating in Germany during the Renaissance, the “Osterhase” (literally the Easter hare) was a folkloric figure among the followers of Martin Luther that judged whether children were behaving correctly at the beginning of Eastertide. Today the Easter Bunny is a far less judgmental creature who brings eggs for all children irrespective of their behavior.

Coin Highlights:

Contains 1/4 oz of Silver.
Packaged in an illustrated blister pack.
Mintage of 50,000 coins.
Obverse: Depicts the coat of arms of the nine federal provinces of Austria.
Reverse: On this Easter Coin 2018, Michael Powolny’s famous rabbit has one ear lying flat and the other raised as if eavesdropping on a conversation. This is what invests this quirky specimen with so much life and soul. The adorable creature is flanked on the coin by a forget-me-not pattern also by Augarten Porcelain Manufactory.
Guaranteed by the Austrian government.
