Commemorative Coin
The Abbey was recently selected as main motif for the Austrian Nonnberg Abbey commemorative coin minted on April 5, 2006. This was the first coin of the series "Great Abbeys of Austria". It shows the Benedictine convent of Nonnberg Abbey. On the hilltop in the background, the castle of Hohensalzburg and the Kajetaner church can be seen.

Famous quotes containing the word coin:
“Washington society has always demanded less and given more than any society in this country—demanded less of applause, deference, etiquette, and has accepted as current coin quick wit, appreciative tact, and a talent for talking.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
