CERN
The special silver coin highlights a flagship machine of CERN, a cutting-edge tool for research and innovation in Switzerland. The CERN's LHC (Large Hadron Collider) is the world's largest particle accelerator. This ring, with a circumference of 27 km, accelerates protons to a speed close to that of light before causing them to collide. The analysis of these collisions provides a deeper understanding of the fundamental structure of matter and how the Universe works.
