When Mumtaz Mahal died giving birth to her fourteenth child, her husband Shah Jahan, who was the emperor of the Mughal Empire and lord of the Indian peninsula, lost a companion, a confidante, a mentor, and above all, the love of his life. He turned grey with grief and declared a state of mourning. People were then not allowed to celebrate, listen to music, wear jewellery or wear perfume for a whole year. The monarch himself did not leave his chambers for twelve months. In memory of the Empress, whom he loved beyond the grave, he built a unique mausoleum, which was named the Taj Mahal. He invited the best architects and artists from all over the world - from Turkey, Persia, Venice and France. Under the hands of twenty thousand workers, a seventeen-hectare complex grew, dominated by a seventy-three-metre-high structure surrounded by four forty-metre-high minarets. The perfectly symmetrical work still stands out in dazzling white. But the shade of the marble magically changes depending on the time of day - at dawn the Taj Mahal has a pink tinge, in the early afternoon it is ivory, at dusk it is bronze and at night it is bluish. But it's most beautiful at the full moon, when it looks as if it's covered in stars. The marble is inlaid with twenty-eight types of precious and semi-precious stones, which artists have used to create floral motifs or fragments of the Koran. Shah Jahan was eventually laid to rest in the mausoleum. He met his beloved again in eternity after thirty-five years.

The reverse side of each coin, which is the work of medal maker Ludmila Kracíková, DiS., presents the mausoleum of the Taj Mahal. The front of the monument is supplemented with the English inscription TAJ MAHAL. On the obverse side, which is common to the whole cycle, all the new seven wonders of the world appear - the Brazilian statue of Christ the Saviour, the Jordanian rock city of Petra, the Mayan city of Chichén Itzá in Mexico, the Roman Colosseum, the Indian monument of the Taj Mahal, the Inca seat of Machu Picchu in Peru and the Great Wall of China. As the coins of the Czech Mint are issued with the foreign license of the island of Niue, they also bear its national emblem, the nominal value of 5 DOLLARS (NZD) and the year of issue 2025 on the obverse side.

Ten identical coins are sealed in special packaging. This is perforated so that it can be conveniently divided into ten parts if necessary.

Note: The packaging is covered with foil to prevent damage during transport.
