Series features Sir Isaac Newton, famous for his important work in mathematics, physics, and much more.

Designer Joel Iskowitz perfectly depicts Newton’s most well-known discoveries featuring the prism, the floating apple and otherworldly orbs referencing his work with gravity, and his creation of the 1718 Gold Quarter Guinea. The coin featured in the obverse design is the 1718 George I Gold Quarter Guinea. A historic coin and a great contribution to the Mint by Newton: As Master of the Mint, Newton was particularly concerned with the accuracy of the nation’s currency. He was determined to ensure all coins were made to the correct weight and fineness, varying as little as possible. His efforts brought the coinage, in Newton’s own words, to a’much greater degree of exactness than was ever known before,’ according to coin designer Joel Iskowitz. But, in 1718, Newton had a problem. The global price of Silver had risen considerably, resulting in vast quantities of British Silver coinage being melted down for its intrinsic value. Without a lower value coin in circulation, the British economy would crumble and the Empire would be over before it had begun. Newton’s solution was simple yet brilliant. Strike a new Gold coin, the first ever Quarter Guinea, to provide a useful substitute to the now scarce five-shilling Silver Crown. Newton’s genius had saved the British economy. 1,359 Item as described. Item exactly as shown! Rec’d item, looking forward to doing business with again.
