2010 - Niue 1 NZD - Lucky Coin - Four-Leaf Clover - Proof

Can luck be helped? What are the ways to do so?

In order to win good luck we gather all sorts of talismans and charms, such as horseshoes, four-leaf clovers, ladybirds or little elephants.

The Mint of Poland have come out with an offering of the most recognizable and universal symbols of luck on collector coins, “Lucky Coins”. What makes the series so original is the innovative technology adopted for the very first time – a transparent capsule placed upon a blank, containing a moving piece of silver.

The first coin in the series was “The Horseshoe”. The second one is the “Four-leaf Clover”. The coin contains a unique silver four-leaf clover filigree and takes its name from the core element, The coins have been struck using Ag 925 blanks.

Collect them all… for luck!
