Austrian 20 Coronas
Austria used to produce a 20 coronas gold coin. These were issued between 1892 and 1916, bearing their date of issue. In typical Austrian tradition, after the death of Franz Joseph in 1916, official restrikes were issued as commemorative pieces, all bearing the date 1915.

The Corona
The corona as a denomination started with the monetary reform of 1892, and lasted until Austria became a republic in 1918.
