| Beschrijving voorzijde | Ruthenium-treated blackened field featuring a diademed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, after the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait, with the engraver's initials IRB visible below the truncation. An armillary sphere is rendered in high relief as a background device, its graduated rings and meridian bands extending across the entire field. The peripheral legend reads ELIZABETH II • 5 CEDIS along the upper arc and • REPUBLIC OF GHANA • 2018 1OZ AG.999 along the lower arc, all separated by a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ghana's "Scientists of the World" commemorative program, launched in the mid-2010s, was a bullion-adjacent series produced for the international collector market rather than domestic circulation — Bank of Ghana licensing these designs to a European mint operator, a now-common arrangement among smaller sovereign issuers seeking hard currency revenue. Galileo's inclusion is unremarkable in that context; he appears on dozens of similar programs across as many issuing authorities.
What the series cannot escape is its central awkwardness: Elizabeth II appears as head of state on Ghanaian coinage despite Ghana being a republic since 1960.
