Product description

Looking for a gift for a wise person, student, teacher or simply someone who likes owls? Then here is a silver medal of the Czech Mint for you, which represents a valuable and original talisman. We will engrave the text directly on the medal according to your wish.

Our ancient ancestors were most afraid of the dark. They imagined the mysterious horrors that lurked there and anxiously awaited the first rays of light in the morning. For other creatures, however, the night is a blessing - the owl, for example, is an unerring nocturnal hunter. It can pinpoint where the slightest sound is coming from and yet remain unseen itself. No wonder the bird of prey, which sees what remains hidden to humans, has become a symbol of wisdom. The ancient Greeks revered the owl as the inseparable companion of the goddess Athena, who gave people crafts and knowledge, and the learned Athenians depicted it on coins.

The owl on the obverse side of the commemorative medal is the work of the medal maker David Kružliak. The elaborated relief is made up of a series of decorative ornaments that evoke the wisdom of ancient civilisations. The reverse side is then reserved for engraving text - a personal dedication, a year, a quote, ... Imagination has no limits.

The silver medal is placed in an elegant box.
