Münze Österreich AG – A tradition shaping the future

Münze Österreich AG (the Austrian Mint) is one of the world’s leading mints and renowned for its exceptional precision in the processing of precious metals and for innovative coin production in accordance with the highest international standards. As a global player, we combine centuries of expertise with state-of-the-art technology, setting new standards in an ever-changing world in the process.

Our portfolio ranges from internationally sought-after bullion coins to artistically designed collector coins and medals, and extends to the production of circulation coins for the Republic of Austria and numerous partner countries. We are also a dependable supplier of precious metal blanks to the global market.

What sets us apart is our systematic integration of tradition and innovation. Our company creates products in which traditional craftsmanship – such as the work of our engravers using traditional techniques – blends seamlessly with highly automated, energy-efficient production processes. This is how we bring together the past, present and future to form a clear commitment to quality.

At the same time, sustainability is a central part of our identity. Environmentally conscious practices, the responsible use of resources, recycling and the continuous improvement of our energy efficiency are central to our day-to-day operations. We see it as our responsibility not only to create value, but also to safeguard it for the long term.

Since 1988, the Austrian Mint has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of the National Bank of Austria. Our location in the heart of Vienna combines historic architecture with state-of-the-art infrastructure – a visible symbol of our identity: deeply rooted in history yet firmly focused on the future.

Around 180 employees contribute their expertise and dedication to producing millions of coins and blanks of the highest quality each year – thus continuing our company’s success story day after day.
