The US Mint has started producing new commemorative coins dedicated to the memory of Steve Jobs, one of the most prominent figures in the technology sector, founder and inspiration behind Apple Inc. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to MacDailyNews, the new coins feature a depiction of Jobs in his youth, sitting cross-legged against the backdrop of the Northern California mountains, wearing a bow tie around his neck.
This image reflects his simple yet powerful creative spirit and philosophical attitude towards life. The coin also bears the inspiring inscription "Do something worth paying attention to."
This phrase was one of Steve Jobs' life mottos, reminding people of his inspiring vision. Additionally, the coin includes the words "United States of America," "California," and "Steve Jobs," affirming his legacy on both a national and scholarly level.
The new commemorative coins will be available for purchase through the official website of the US Mint. Each coin is priced at $13.25.
Moreover, small sets consisting of four coins, as well as collectible sets of 25 and 100 coins, will also be offered for sale. Steven Paul Jobs was born on February 24, 1955, in California.
In 1976, together with his friend Steve Wozniak, he founded Apple Inc. with the goal of creating and selling personal computers. Later, he established NeXT and, as a major shareholder of Pixar Studios, significantly influenced the animation industry.
Although Steve Jobs passed away on October 5, 2011, his ideas, revolutionary approach to technology, and the motto "think different" continue to inspire millions today. Additionally, the US Department of the Treasury has announced plans to issue $1 coins featuring former President Donald Trump in honor of the country's 250th anniversary.
This tradition of commemorating national symbols alongside individuals who have become sources of inspiration is expanding across the country.
