Information about the Silver Cyber Queen - The Beginning 3 oz - 2023
Cyberpunk is a science fiction subgenre characterized by anti-heroes fighting against a system or oppressor in a dehumanized, high-tech dystopian future. The term “cyberpunk” is a combination of the words “cybernetics”, the science of replacing human functions with computers, and “punk”, the style of music. In contrast to the classic utopias of other science fiction genres, the world of cyberpunk is characterized by gloom, violence and pessimism. The genre usually focuses on the promise of a better world that has not been fulfilled: Technology is not used for the good, but to monitor and control people. It is not uncommon for cyber protagonists to fall victim to hack attacks or remote control for the benefit of their adversaries.
In the 1980s, the genre gained worldwide popularity thanks to William Gibson's novel “Neuromancer” and the cult film “Blade Runner”. Other films such as “RoboCop” and “Judge Dredd” were released soon after. Ultimately, “The Matrix” became the most cyberpunk-influenced film of its time.
The design of the coin
The motif side shows a lady on a motorcycle. The smartminting® technology creates an ultra-high relief that makes the cyberqueen on her futuristic motorcycle appear almost three-dimensional. It also features the typical neon coloration against a black proof finish.
The value side is adorned with the lettering CYBER QUEEN and the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, as well as the issuing country “COOK ISLANDS” and the face value “20 DOLLARS”.
