Looking for an original gift for newlyweds? Give them a wedding ducat from the Czech Mint with the year 2025 in the Slovak version that combines the value of gold with original symbolism.

Courtship, engagement and wedding are accompanied by a number of customs, traditions and superstitions. Some are thousands of years old, others have only recently been established and there are undoubtedly more to come. While in the past wedding customs were fixed and failure to observe them was at the very least an embarrassment, today it is up to the fiancés and wedding guests what they choose to do. And that they have plenty to choose from! In a globalised world, it is very easy to find out what customs are followed across borders. There are different customs in each country, but their meaning is the same - they are supposed to bring happiness and prosperity. You have probably heard that a bride should carry something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue on her big day. However, this tradition, which is based on an old English nursery rhyme, has a fifth part that is forgotten - the penny that the bride is supposed to put in her slipper to bring happiness, wealth and prosperity to her new family.

In the relief of the ducat, which is the work of medal maker Lucie Kroupová, you will find not only the bride's shoe, but also wedding rings and other necessary parts of the wedding wardrobe.

In addition to the thaler, the gift packaging also contains a certificate of authenticity with space for inscribing a personal dedication. Don't overlook other variants of the wedding penny – in our 2025 offer you will find two different precious metals and versions that can be engraved with a dedication.
