The Austrian Mint, Münzen Österreich, starts a new coin collection under the name of Alpine Treasures. The first currency is already on sale in the Austrian mint online store, although shipments and their official issuance will not happen until next February 12. The currency of which I speak is issued under the name of "The highest peak" and has as its protagonist the Hohe Tauern National Park.

Alpine Treasures Series
 
Just as gold lasts forever, the mighty Alps will rise for eternity. That said, environmental pollution and mass tourism have taken their toll over the past century. Alpine Treasures is a series of three coins that highlights the rare species of plants and animals that are native to the Austrian Alps and shows the multifaceted nature of Austria's spectacular mountainous landscape. In doing so, it offers a beautiful golden vision of the monumental peaks of the Hohe Tauern National Park, the lush green valleys of the Kalkalpen and the wild waters of the Gesäuse National Park.

First Currency - The Highest Peak
 
The series begins climbing to the top of the highest peak, which offers a beautiful golden view of the monumental peaks of the Hohe Tauern National Park, including the Grossglockner, the highest mountain in Austria (3,798 meters).

One of the most spectacular high mountain landscapes on the planet, the Hohe Tauern is home to 300 peaks over 3,000 meters high. The first national park in Austria, with an area of ​​1,800 km2 where the provinces of Salzburg, Tyrol and Carinthia converge on the central ridge of the Austrian Alps, the Hohe Tauern is also the largest national park in central Europe.


More than a third of all plant species registered in Austria can be found in Hohe Tauern, including half of all mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians. Among the 3,500 species of plants in the park is a botanical rarity in the Eastern Alps, the endemic Alpenbreitschötchen, a member of the cruciferous vegetable family. The special protection area in the Grossglockner is one of the few places where the plant can be found in Austria. The obverse of the coin presents different images of Alpenbreitschötchen or Alpine Braya.
 
 
Another rare creature in this region is the golden eagle, an endangered species. Already in the seventeenth century, humans had begun to consider the "king of the air" as a predator and a danger to farm animals, which began a fight against them, also in the Alpine region. The golden eagle is now strictly protected and in Hohen Tauern National Park, it can fly freely. The reverse of the coin shows a miniature view of the national park illuminated by the golden light of sunset, in which you can see a golden eagle flying in front of the majestic Grossglockner.
