Context
Marie Curie (1867-1934) was a Polish physicist and chemist, naturalized French by her marriage to physicist Pierre Curie in 1895. An exceptional scientist, she was the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize. She remains the only person to have been awarded in two distinct scientific fields: in 1903, with her husband Pierre Curie (1859-1906), she received the Nobel Prize in Physics, and in 1911 the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for her work on polonium and radium. This coin commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of Marie Curie's death. This is an automatic translation. The original text is: Marie Curie (1867-1934) est une physicienne et chimiste polonaise, naturalisée française par son mariage avec le physicien Pierre Curie en 1895. Scientifique d'exception, elle est la première femme à avoir reçu le prix Nobel et, à ce jour. Elle reste la seule personne à avoir été récompensée dans deux domaines scientifiques distincts, elle a reçu en 1903 avec son mari Pierre Curie (1859-1906) le prix Nobel de physique et en 1911 le prix Nobel de chimie pour ses travaux sur le polonium et le radium. Cette pièce commémore le cinquantenaire de la mort de Marie Curie.
