EVOLUTION


Description:
Symbolising the origin of Evolution as a whole, an image of the DNA molecule, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid. A debate still continues about who exactly should be credited with decoding the molecule, but Francis Crick, James D. Watson and Maurice Wilkins were awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for their work in this field.

Description:
History of human development and the diversity of forms of life brought about by evolution, with the design making splendid use of the coin’s outer silver ring and inner niobium pill to do so.
