Emperor Franz Joseph I.

Type Schwartz

In 1909 the picture of the Emperor changed, the head no longer adorns the laurel wreath. The gold coin 10 kroin exist as oddity in two versions. The first version with a slimmer head has been designed by Rudolf Marschall as a commemorative coin of the previous year. The second version has been designed by the medallist Stefan Schwartz. He had a good reputation as an artist, it allowed him to sign up with his name under the head of the emperor.
