1969 5 Schilling

This is another coin from Austria, no real idea how I got it. This is a 5 Schilling- gone with the advent of the Euro- and it's worth 500 Groschen. There's a horse and rider and sadly Wikipedia doesn't say who they are. As of 2002 it's out of use. I'm not going to say I hate the Euro or anything, I don't, I'm just sad all these original, interesting types of money are gone now.

Edit: Mom reminded me she went to Prague one time, and that's where the Austrian coins are coming from.
