The Executive Board of the National Bank of Moldova (NBM) decided to issue a commemorative coin dedicated to health workers with the name "My doctor - my hero" and, for this purpose, invites citizens to propose concepts for developing its design.
"The creation of this tribute coin comes to reflect the attitude of deep gratitude, esteem and admiration towards those who risk their lives each hour and second to save other lives. Each of us can reduce the negative impact of the epidemiological situation - by respecting personal protection measures and those around us. Only with such a responsible involvement, the manifestation of gratitude towards doctors acquires meaning ", states the NBM Governor, Octavian Armașu.
In this context, the National Bank encourages all citizens, who have reached the age of 18, as well as legal entities, to express their graphic vision of the future coin, in order to achieve a distinct coin of an aesthetic, ideational and soul awareness value.
The basic criteria for selecting the concepts refer to the originality, creativity and coherence of the design elements, so that it is possible to execute them on the surface of the coin. Each participant will be able to present only one concept, being obliged to respect copyright and related rights. By participating, the author of the concept agrees with the processing of personal data.
The design concepts will be examined by a commission created by the NBM, which reserves the right to use them in the elaboration of the final design. The participants will send the works and a short biographical information to the e-mail consultare@bnm.md, specifying "Concept for the coin dedicated to doctors".
The deadline is 15 August 2020.
