On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the minting of the golden Vienna Philharmonic in 2008, the Austrian mint Münze Österreich presented a silver coin with an identical motif to the gold coin. The image of both sides was created for the gold coin by the Austrian designer Thomas Pesendorfer.

One side of the coin shows the organ from the golden hall of the Vienna Musikverein. Above the organ is the inscription Republik Osterreich, below it is the weight of the coin and the word FINSILBER. The latter indicates the 999/1000 silver from which the coins are made. On this side of the coin there is also a nominal value of 1.5 EUR and the year of minting.

The other side of the coin shows a collection of musical instruments of an orchestra: cello, violin (4x), harp, horn and bassoon. Above the instruments is the inscription Wiener Philharmoniker, translated as the name of the Vienna Philharmonic series.

The rim of the silver coins is smooth.

Since the gold coins are very recognizable, the circulation of the silver coins in the first year of minting came close to the circulation of the Canadian Maple Leaf investment coins. At only 37mm in diameter, the coins are one of the smallest 1oz silver investment coins, but the diameter of the silver coin is the same as the gold and platinum ounce Vienna Philharmonic.

The Austrian Mint Münze Österreich is located in Vienna, the capital of Austria. Its beginnings date back to 1194, when it was founded by the Austrian Duke Leopold V to mint Austrian silver pennies. They were minted from 12 tons of silver, which they received from England as a ransom for the release of Richard the Lionheart, captured on return from one of the crusades. In the past, there were several mints in Austria, but with the establishment of the Republic of Austria in 1918, the Vienna Main Mint became the only mint in the country. In 1989, its name was officially changed to Münze Österreich and it became a subsidiary of the Austrian National Bank. The mint mints circulation and collector coins, but is also famous for its products for investors. In addition to gold bars, they mint the gold Vienna Philharmonic. The first gold Vienna Philharmonic was produced at the mint in 1989, later joined by silver and platinum ones. The products of the mint are characterized by high forging quality.
