Famous artists:
Giacomo Casanova appears on the gold coin of the Czech
Mint from the free cycle commemorating important personalities of world
history.
Giacomo Casanova had hundreds of interests - he worked as
a writer, spy, diplomat, businessman, schemer, soldier, gambler, violinist,
adventurer and sorcerer. He studied law, medicine and divinity.
He learned
Latin, Greek, economics, mathematics, history and philosophy. He was originally
Italian, but his home was all of Europe - he became a secret agent for the
Portuguese, a financial advisor at the French court, and he came up with the
project of a national lottery in England.
Although most of the ventures he
threw himself headlong into ended in failure, he always managed to find a
wealthy patron.
Once he was on top, the next time he was on the bottom. He's
been a guest in royal courts and a prisoner in filthy cells... But one thing
he's always done well.
Seduction, coquetry, flirtation, intrigue, sex and
dalliances were his daily bread.
As a lover of women, he was tireless and
predatory, but his methods were subtle and sophisticated. He was not handsome,
but he was intelligent, charming, witty and elegant. Many noble ladies and
chaste nunssuccumbed his compliments. As soon as he conquered one woman, he
immediately embarked on another love affair...
Casanova's life was turbulent,
but he lived it in boredom as a librarian in the castle of Duchcov in Bohemia.
He escaped from the dull reality into dreams and memories, which he transformed
into an incredible autobiography.

contemporary painting, is supplemented with the inscription "GIACOMO CASANOVA" on
the reverse side of the coin.

consisting of a quill, Casanova's signature and the facade of the Duchcov
castle.
