This issue celebrates the 100th birthday of Vicco von Bülow (Loriot), the popular comedian, film director, actor and writer whose quotes have become catchphrases in German popular culture.

Bernhard-Viktor Christoph-Carl von Bülow (1923-2011), better known as Vicco von Bülow or Loriot, was a German humorist whose sketches, films and parodies are among the absolute classics of German television and cinema history. In a special comedy episode of the German tv program Unsere Besten (Our best), he was ranked as the most famous German comedian ever.

Featuring the character of the “Rosenkavalier” (the suitor with his rose), the obverse depicts not only one of von Bülow’s most well-known drawings but a truly iconic figure: Loriot often sketched it as a special gift alongside his autograph. The coin convincingly juxtaposes the vibrancy of the rose with the delicate lines picking out the bust in relief. An inscription gives the name of the coin’s honoree as well as the dates of his birth and death. The portrait floats untethered on the face of the coin. The chosen design brings a subtle sense of humour to mingle strikingly with the surreal charm of the humorist’s work.

The reverse has the German eagle, the words “BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND”, the value and denomination, the letter “J” for the Hamburg Mint, the year 2023, and the twelve stars of Europe.
