2000 Francs Awareness - End of Humanity

It’s a pleasure to present Awareness coin, the second issue in our End of Humanity series.

After several world wars that threatened to destroy life on earth, the AI put an end to human existence, saving the Earth. Everything was left in the hands of the only ones who were able to “live” in peace, the robots and all the species that had survived. Each release will commemorate one of the traits that have made humans the most intelligent, empathetic and capable beings in all of existence, even if all is now lost, isn’t it?

The reverse depicts an anthropomorphic robot sitting “reflecting” on a couch in the middle of a street in a devastated city, while nuclear explosions occur all around. This scene references the famous sculpture “The Thinker” by French sculptor Rodin, who precisely aimed to represent the need for awareness and reflection through his work, to avoid the downfall towards which humanity is heading.

The obverse shows the finger of the AI’s hand that pressed the button that would end the human race. The power and scope of the attack on all the continents and territories of the Earth can be seen.
