The silver coin of the Czech Mint from the gift series with motifs of 12 signs of the zodiac will become not only a beautiful, but also a valuable talisman for everyone who was born in the sign of Aquarius.

Aquarius, Latin for Aquarius, is one of the oldest observed constellations in the zodiac. It is associated with a number of legends, but in all of them it has the form of a man with a bucket, a jug or other vessel. In Egyptian mythology, Aquarius caused the flooding of the Nile, in Greek myths it was Zeus who punished sinful humanity with a stream of water. The celestial ruler of the born in the sign of Aquarius is the planet Uranus, which in astrology is a symbol of change, coups, unrest, but also originality. Aquarius is often given a desire for freedom and the demolition of old order. Therefore, they often become thinkers, discoverers, artists and visionaries who are ahead of their time. Sometimes, however, they also show inadaptability and a tendency to be different at all costs. Surprisingly, the element of aquarius is not water, but air which signifies extraterrestrial thinking.

he coin of a non-traditional oval shape bears a colored image of Aquarius in the form of an ancient man with an amphora on the reverse side. Photographs or computer graphics were not used as a template for coloring - the author of the coin, Asamat Baltaev, DiS., created an original watercolor painting. The relief in the background behind Aquarius presents a disk with a dozen zodiac signs. The composition of the reverse side is supplemented with a Latin inscription of AQUARIUS and an astrological symbol. Since the coins of the Czech Mint are licensed by a foreign issuer, the island of Niue, their obverse sides bear its national emblem, the nominal value of ONE DOLLAR (NZD) and the year of issue 2021. All this is surrounded by twelve astrological signs.

The coin is stored in an elegant box.

As the King of the gods, Zeus‘ connection with Leo is appropriate as it is the "king of the Zodiac signs". The connection gains a lot more weight in mythology: Zeus is closely associated with Helios, perhaps even more so than Apollo, as Helios is referred as "the eye of Zeus" and is referred as Zeus in his own Orphic hymn. Aether (the primordial light that illumines the Heavens) is "Zeus' power", and his role as the god of civilization, justice and law is very similar to that of sun gods like Shamash and Ra (Apollo also shares these traits, as he too is a god of justice and law). Zeus is outright referred as the Sun in some particular Greco-roman religious traditions like Pythagorean philosophy, where he is the supramundane Sun of the Olympians.As the Sun symbolizes the center, so is Leo's position in the Zodiac indicative.

The unique gift series "Crystal Coin" is the result of a combination of traditional Jablonec crafts - the Czech Mint and Preciosa glassworks. The birth of a child is one of the most popular motifs that appear on silver coins with Czech crystal. The original gift for the cradle has been released several times - this time with the year 2023 and a brand new stork motif.

In ancient times, storks were an object of worship all over the world. The noble feathered creatures symbolised piety and justice in ancient Egypt, immortality in China and they brought new life in Europe. The Germanic pagans believed that it was not only frogs that lived in the marshes, which were a favourite delicacy of the stork, but also the souls of unborn children. The storks hunted these souls and placed them in the bodies of the future mothers. Weddings then took place at the celebration of the summer solstice at the end of June, and when the storks returned home from the warm lands in the spring, many newly married women were about to give birth. The notion of the stork bearing children was aided by the fact that he himself was a caring parent who devotedly took care of his offspring. The superstition has survived into modern times and has helped parents avoid delicate conversations with older siblings of newborn children for hundreds of years. Where did the baby come from? A stork brought it! Why is mommy lying in bed? A stork pecked her! The children were happy to accept that explanation…

The reverse side of the commemorative coin, which is the work of medal maker Petra Brodská, DiS., presents a combination of embossed relief, Czech crystal and traditional symbolism. The baby wrapped in a scarf is accompanied not only by a stork but also by a crow, which according to some legends carries baby girls to their parents. The bundle of good luck is carried by balloons, one of which is made of a crystal stone. As the coins of the Czech Mint are issued witrh the license of a foreign issuer, which is the island of Niue, their obverse side bears its necessary attributes - the nominal value of 2 DOLLARS (NZD), the year of issue 2023, the name of Elizabeth II and the portrait of the Queen, which is surrounded by a number of children motifs.

The coin is issued in a limited edition of 1000 pieces. It represents an original, yet traditional gift.
