Information about the silver niobium coin “Global Warming” 25 EUR SU AUT - 2023
2023 is a special year for collectors of colorful silver niobium coins. The innovation celebrates its 20th anniversary: coins with niobium cores are a specialty from Austria and unique in their kind. The latest silver niobium coin from the Austrian Mint is dedicated to the topic of global warming.
First the bad news: it's getting hotter and hotter. The rise in temperature caused by humans since the middle of the 19th century has already exceeded the 1°C mark. This is not a new realization. The global community had already agreed to limit the temperature rise to 1.5°C in the 2015 Paris Agreement. This target was confirmed at the 2021 climate summit in Glasgow. However, the Paris goals cannot be achieved with the current measures; a temperature rise of more than 3°C is to be feared by 2100, which would have dramatic consequences for people and nature.
The design of the coin
The design side of the coin deals with the aspect of sustainability in economic, ecological and social terms. A globe is depicted in the middle, with the silhouettes of two faces on the right and a sea turtle swimming through the picture next to it. This species is threatened with extinction due to environmental pollution and global warming.
The value side shows a thermometer, which is part of a clock. It stands at two minutes to twelve. To the left is a globe. It reads: +1.5°C.
