Germany Weimar Kepler Society K-35 Wurster-2122 MS 64 PCGS silver medal 1930

This elegant 1930 silver medal from the Germany Weimar Republic was issued in honor of Johannes Kepler and the legacy of the Kepler Society, celebrating one of history’s greatest pioneers of astronomy and mathematics. Johannes Kepler revolutionized scientific thought through his laws of planetary motion, helping humanity better understand the structure of the cosmos and laying the foundations for modern astrophysics. Produced during the intellectually vibrant Weimar period, this medal combines scientific symbolism, architectural imagery, and refined medallic craftsmanship into a historically important collectible dedicated to knowledge and discovery.

The obverse features a finely modeled portrait of Johannes Kepler surrounded by orbital paths and celestial motifs symbolizing astronomy, planetary movement, and cosmic order. The scientist is shown with detailed facial features, flowing beard, and Renaissance-style clothing, while stars and orbiting spheres create a dynamic scientific composition around the portrait. The reverse depicts a beautifully engraved medieval cityscape with towers, church spires, fortified walls, rooftops, and architectural details enclosed within a decorative circular border. The balanced design evokes the intellectual and cultural heritage of Central Europe during the age of scientific awakening.

Struck in silver with attractive original toning and sharp relief, this medal is certified MS 64 by PCGS, indicating excellent preservation and strong visual appeal. Medals connected to astronomy and scientific history remain highly collectible, especially pieces honoring Johannes Kepler. This example is a superb addition for collectors of science-themed exonumia, historical medals, astronomy, mathematics, architecture, and classic German numismatics.
