In my high school, the science department was set up so that students took general science, biology, chemistry, and physics. In that order. I have later come to believe that physics should be taught before chemistry. Chemistry is much like small scale physics. I enjoy the subject only as far as Newtonian physics, and often considered adding some comments to the "cats in space" thread.

Without mathematics Rutherford would not have had a leg to stand on.

Where does coin collecting fall?
That's nice that Rutherford is a New Zealander. I learn something everyday.

I was a physics major (way back when) before taking a degree in an unrelated field. Still read about developments, but only superficially nowadays, certainly not in any mathematical depth.

Wow! The note even features a medal!
But it should have said Rutherford's famous quote!

I think the medal is the nobel physics prize

Yes that is the reverse of the Nobel Prize medal for Physics and Chemistry. The reverse of the Nobel Prize Medal is different for each category.
