The sixth coin in the innovation of science series.
With groundbreaking theories and innovative work in
the fields of computing, mathematics and science, Alan Turing’s ingenuity
and intellect remains revered within public and academic circles.
Estimated to have saved millions of lives by shortening the war, his
codebreaking logic applied during the Second World War along with fellow
codebreakers serves as an act of intellectual heroism. In recent years,
Turing has become a figurehead for gay rights following his posthumous
pardon from Her Majesty The Queen in 2013, which has since led to further
pardons to gay men and created what’s become known as ‘Turing’s Law’.
