Born on the 3rd of March in 1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland, Alexander Graham Bell was not only an inventor, but also a eugenicist, audiologist and major entrepreneur. Through his ideas and the further development of the first telephone by Antonio Meucci, Alexander Graham Bell was one of the first people to make money with the telephone. In honor of his personality, the auxiliary unit of reference for marking decadic logarithms was named after him. The Bel unit can be used to measure electrical voltages, power and sound levels. In 1922, the inventor died at the age of 75 in Baddeck, Canada. The silver proof coin is delivered in the original box including a certificate of authenticity from the Royal Canadian Mint.
