The Black Hole

Silver Coin

Silver Coins 20 Euro 2022

Proof

A unique coin for a unique phenomenon. Concave on one side and convex on the other, The Black Hole illustrates the funnel shape of these regions of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing can escape from them.

Once beyond the point of no return – known as the ‘event horizon’ – the ‘singularity’ awaits at the centre. Stephen Hawking and Roger Penrose showed that this is a place where space-time curvature is infinite.

Spanning some 80 million years, the Cretaceous period ended 66 million years ago when an asteroid collided with Earth. The period’s high sea levels meant that large portions of the landmass were under water, but on dry land dinosaurs such as struthiosaurius austriacus thrived. Protected by body armour, this small yet fearsome creature is brought to life on the third coin in our fascinating Prehistoric Life: Back from the Dead series.
