An Austro-Hungarian 100 Corona Coin and More at Nadeau’s Auction Gallery

A standard denomination of coinage in the Austro-Hungarian empire from 1892 to 1916 was the gold Corona. Though the most used was the 20 Corona coin, there was also a ten Corona coin and, briefly, a 100 Corona. The original 100 Corona gold coin was issued only in the early 20th century, beginning in 1908 to mark the 60th anniversary of Franz Joseph I as Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary. There are two such gold Corona coins in the upcoming Custom Antique Furnishings and Decorative Accessories sale, presented by Nadeau’s Auction Gallery. 

Other key lots include a pair of spinach jade covered vases, a large Chinese yellow silk Kang (warmed sleeping platform) cover, a Tiffany & Co. sterling silver flatware set, and more. In addition, there are a few fine art lots, such as a still life with fruit and grapes by French artist Isabelle Gabrielle. Collectors can also consider trays full of costume jewelry, binders full of collector cards, jade items, assorted vases, furniture, a slot machine, and more.
