<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1841970, member: 39&quot;]As for the weight, my catalog (Schön) says the weight is 24 g in both cases. The &quot;building&quot; is a combination of several buildings in Innsbruck, such as the <a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Innsbruck_Helblinghaus.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Innsbruck_Helblinghaus.jpg" rel="nofollow">Helblinghaus</a> on the right and the <a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:12-06-05-innsbruck-by-ralfr-242.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:12-06-05-innsbruck-by-ralfr-242.jpg" rel="nofollow">Stadtturm</a> (City Tower).</p><p><br /></p><p>That &quot;square eagle&quot; was used on several Austrian 100 Schilling commems between 1975 and 1978. Interesting design, but none of the reverses harmonized with that obverse ...&nbsp; By the way, the small Tyrolean eagle at the bottom is a mintmark; for the 1976 Olympics the old mint in Hall near Innsbruck (today an interesting <a href="http://www.muenze-hall.at/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.muenze-hall.at/" rel="nofollow">museum</a>) was temporarily reactivated. The Vienna mint had the city&#039;s CoA as a mintmark on these coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
