Silver thaler Baby and Christening 2012 proof | Czech Mint

The Mint says about this coin:

Silver thaler Baby and Christening 2012 proof Jáchymov thalers were struck in the 16th century by count Šlik in Jáchymov (in German they were called Joachimsthalergulden). Spoonerism of the word thaler gave rise to the name of dollar. As a result, the thaler became a symbol of many current coins but also of silver.The gift for the occasion of baby birth and christening thus has a permanent value of this precious metal and, in addition to it, of the art work of designers and the mint’s engravers.Czech Mint regularly changes motifs on the baby and christening medals.The obverse side of the silver thaler 2012 depicts a baby lying on his/her belly on a diaper-changing desk, with an outstretched hand and a baby rattle. The legend reads “Tolar k narození dítěte“ (Baby and Christening thaler).The reverse side features a composition of toys and the year “2012“ in circumscription.Unlimited edition. More Less
