| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a bearded male figure dressed in traditional Austrian Tracht, seated on a rocky outcrop and rendered in vivid colour. He wears a green felt hat adorned with a feather, a pink-and-white checked shirt, a green embroidered waistcoat, and brown leather lederhose with elaborate green stitched ornamental embroidery at the bib and hem. Green cable-knit stockings and leather shoes complete the costume. He holds a wooden walking stick across his body. To his left, an engraved stag stands in profile amid stylised floral and acanthus scrollwork that fills the background field in uncoloured silver relief. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Austrian Mint's ongoing Folk Costume series, this issue celebrates the Lederhose as a garment whose origins are solidly utilitarian — developed by Alpine working men in the 18th century before being romantically recast as a cultural symbol through the Bavarian and Austrian nationalist movements of the 19th. The transformation from workwear to identity marker was largely deliberate, driven by urban romanticization of rural life rather than any organic folk revival.
