Steampunk is a creative movement that blends Victorian-era aesthetics with imaginative steam-powered technology. It originated in the 1980s as a subgenre of science fiction and fantasy and has since expanded into various art forms. The term “steampunk” was first coined by author K.W. Jeter in 1987 as a playful nod to the cyberpunk genre. Right now, 2024 3 oz Antique Cook Islands Silver Steampunk Carnival Coins are available from BullionMax.
