Description
30th birthday of the Berlin Wall’s fall
Classical collection coins
The obverse of the coin shows the Brandebourg Gate, previously on the East side, Crowned by the quadriga of the Greak goddes of Victory; it is one of the strongest symbol of Berlin and of Germany. In the center, a soldier holding a rose, goes through the wall as an allegory of the fall of the wall. « Berlin » is written in a tag way on the wall. Below the coin, « 30 Jahre Mauerfall » is written. It means 30 years of the Fallen Wall.
The reverse shows the background of the Berlin Wall with the words « 30 ans de la Chute du Mur de berlin 1989-2019 », and also the face value and the RF inscription. On the right hand side stands the Templehof airport, symbol of West Berlin. On the left, a bear, mascot of Berlin city, is symbolically pushing the wall.
The Collection
The fall of the Berlin Wall, the first steps on the Moon, or the Allied invasion of Normandy during the Second World War. These are some of the highlights to which Monnaie de Paris would like to pay tribute with a collection called Major Landmarks in the History of Humanity. A collection characterized, also, by a series of technical prowess.
Our craftman
THE ENGRAVER
Trained at the best schools, they have the years of experience behind them necessary to master all aspects of the craft. Using industrial oil-based modelling clay and working from a design executed freehand or with CAD software, they skilfully fashion a low relief model in order to enhance the engraving and the way it catches the light. They work alternately with concave and convex plaster moulds until satisfied they have achieved the best 3D rendering of the design.
THE MINTER
The first minters began to ply their trade in France when striking with a hammer appeared in the 4th century BC. Nowdays, minsters use press instead of a hammer. Their knowledge of dies, engraving and metals, and their expertise - passed seamlessly down from one generation to the next for centuries - guarantees the excellence of their work.
