Cthulhu and H.P. Lovecraft
The master of cosmic horror brought forth his most recognizable monster into public consciousness with the following words:
“A monster of vaguely anthropoid outline, but with an octopus-like head whose face was a mass of feelers, a scaly, rubbery-looking body, prodigious claws on hind and fore feet, and long, narrow wings behind”

Cthulhu was the high priest of the Great Old Ones who ruled the Earth before mankind even existed. Laying dormant in the sunken city of R'lyeh, Cthulhu sleeps and his dreams were said to influence early humans to form the cult of Cthulhu, which chants the words "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" whose translation into English is revealed upon this rare coin when seen through a looking glass.
