SATURN PLANETS AND GODS 2021 CAMEROON 3000 FRANCS 3oz SILVER COIN
Since ancient times Saturn was known to humanity because of its brightnessand closeness to Earth. It is the sixth planet from the sun, which has the
largest planetary rings in the Solar System. Saturn bears its name in honor
of the Roman god of wealth, agriculture and time, who is the equivalent of
the Greek god of time – Crono's. Because of the planet’s slow orbit around
the sun, it was associated with time, and due to its golden-like glow, it was
also associated with wealth. That is why the coin depicts the wise god with a
scythe in one hand and putting his other hand on the hourglass. The coin’s
background is tinted brownish-yellow in order to match the planet’s color.
