SWEDEN Gustaf Dalén 1982 bronze Medal / Nobel Laureate and Inventor
Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences series: commemorating the life of the famous inventor and Nobel laureate (44mm, 70.62 g, 12h). Tan-bronze surfaces, with immense depth and intricacy; a few scattered marks are noted for completeness. A very futuristic-feeling work of art. Dalén won the Nobel prize in physics in 1912 for his work on lighthouse technology. Specifically, he developed "Dalén light, " which utilized acetylene and his "sun valve" to create a much more efficient light source for lighthouses. Given the extensive coastlines of Scandinavia, the mass-produced lighthouse buoys manufactured by the AGA company were immensely popular.
