Gilded silver coin 2000 Francs Cameroon 2023 – Dual Essence: Lucifer
€275.00 includes 22% VAT
Lucifer is the personification of the morning star, the planet Venus, in Roman mythology. The most common meaning of Lucifer is the name of the Devil in Christian theology. It appears in the Vulgate not as a name for the devil, but as the Latin word lucifer, meaning “morning star,” “planet Venus,” or, as an adjective, “bringer of light.” Since the late Middle Ages in Christianity it has been a synonym for the fallen angel, identified with Satan and the devil.
The coin reveals the profound metamorphosis of the once flawless Cherub. Once this rebel, the most revered angel in heaven, was overthrown by the hand of God due to the emergence of vanity and violence in him. The brightest creature went into exile and turned into a devil. The coin balances the purity and evil of the fallen. Divided into two parts and holding a gilded morning star, the biblical figure serves as a reminder of the symbolic meaning associated with his name. Lucifer represents the sign of duality and lost glory. The special style of the coin is antique coating, high relief.
