50€ Stanisław Lem, Master of Science Fiction 1 oz 999.9 Gold Malta 2023

 

For the first time in history, Stanislaw Lem has been immortalised on a gold coin!  The world's first gold coins in the series "Stanislaw Lem, Master of Science Fiction". The combination of valuable bullion and the global science-fiction phenomenon is a recipe for a successful investment.

 

The coin was struck from 1 ounces of pure gold in a limited mintage of only 150 pieces worldwide! This factor makes it an excellent collector's coin. The reverse of the coin features a profile of Stanisław Lem according to a photograph from the 1960s, when he celebrated his greatest triumphs and when his most important novels and collections of short stories were written.

 

The coin is packaged in an elegant wooden box (natural wood, boxes may differ in appearance) with a certificate attesting to its authenticity.

 

Stanisław Lem was a Polish writer of the hard science-fiction genre, philosopher and futurologist. He was born on 12 September 1921 in Lviv and died on 27 March 2006 in Krakow. His works dealt with such topics as the development of science and technology, human nature, the possibility of communication between intelligent beings and the place of man in the Universe. Lem's works contain references to the state of society and scientific and philosophical reflections on it. In addition to science fiction stories, such as 'The Star Diaries' or the Pilot Pirx adventure series, Lem's oeuvre includes detective novels ('Investigation'), futurological essays and treatises (e.g. 'Summa technologiae'), poetry, screenplays for radio plays, films or dramas, as well as the unique space fairy tale 'The Robot Fairy Tales'. One of the many expressions of international recognition of Stanisław Lem's work was the naming of the asteroid discovered in September 1970 after him, as well as the first scientific satellite built entirely in Poland. In Poland, Stanisław Lem's books are published by Wydawnictwo Literackie, with which the writer has been associated for almost his entire career.
