Famous artists:
I studied Hemingway's novel "The Old Man and the Sea" as part of ther course curriculum when I was studying in La Martiniere College, Lucknow.
The half-ounce gold coin of the Czech Mint from the free
cycle, which commemorates important personalities of world history, is
dedicated to Ernest Hemingway. He joined the hall of greats 60 years after his
passing away.
Ernest Hemingway was an American writer who was famous
for his minimalist style - concise, objective, free of all superfluous things.
Although he achieved his greatest fame as an economical short story writer, his
own life would make a novel in several volumes.
He enjoyed life to the full. He
loved women and married four times. He liked to spend money and drink a lot -
he kept a urinal from his favourite bar at home. He sought danger in all
corners of the world.
He volunteered for the Red Cross and was badly wounded on
the Italian front during the First World War.
As a reporter, he took part in
the Spanish Civil War, the Sino-Japanese War and the fighting on the Western
Front in World War II.
He liked risky sports. He loved Spanish bullfighting,
African safaris and fishing in the Caribbean.
Twice he nearly died in plane
crashes... Outwardly he was the prototype of a man brimming with strength, but
inside he was vulnerable, and both are reflected in his immortal work. A man,
whose bitter and painful experiences made him reflect on human bravery and
indomitability, finally decided to commit suicide.
The Gold Coin:
The designer of the commemorative coin is MgA. Tereza
Eisnerová.
The Reverse side of the $25 (Twenty Five Dollars - NZD) Gold Coin, which is as economical as the writer's work, is
dominated by a charismatic portrait of Hemingway, who is not missing his beard
and thick knitted sweater. The inscription bears the full name of "ERNEST M.
HEMINGWAY".
The Obverse side of the $25 (Twenty Five Dollars - NZD) Gold Coin is inspired by Hemingway's last and most famous
work, which earned him the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Nobel Prize in
literature.
The relief depicts a marlin, the giant fish with which the hero of
the novel "The Old Man and the Sea fought".
The design presents Sea waves and Hemingway's signature which complete the composition of this side.
As this is a coin issued with a
foreign licence from the island of Niue, the Obverse side bears the necessary
attributes of the issuer - the name and portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, the
nominal value of "25 DOLLARS" and the year of issue "2021".
A pictorial certificate of authenticity is an integral
part of the coin, which is issued in a limited edition of 200 pieces. It
depicts Ernest Hemingway in the situations that inspired him to write his most
famous works.
