Captions Is this the world's most famous medal? 🥇 ✨
The Nobel Prizes are awarded to '...those who, during the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind'. 👏 Prizes in physics, chemistry, physiology/medicine, literature and peace have been awarded since 1901, and in economic sciences since 1968.
At the ceremonies in Stockholm and Oslo, the Laureates receive a Nobel Prize diploma, a document confirming the Nobel Prize amount (set at SEK 10 million per 'full' Nobel Prize in 2022), and...
...last but not least, a Nobel Prize medal! 🥇
✌️ 5 facts about the medals:
🧔♂️ A portrait of Alfred Nobel (1833-1896) is on all Nobel Prize medals, but the categories vary in design.
🥇 The medals are 18-carat recycled gold (an alloy of 750 parts 24-carat gold and 250 parts fine silver), gilded with 24-carat gold.
⚖️ A medal weighs 175-185 grams, with a 66-millimetre diameter.
💸 The medals are valued at around SEK 60,000.
🇸🇪 The 'Swedish' Nobel medals are made in the Swedish town of Eskilstuna.
