Choose Lucky Gold Pieces

The Chinese believe that the colour gold is very auspicious and is thought to bring good luck, wealth, prosperity and fortune. This is why gold coins and bars are bought and given to loved ones around the time of Chinese New Year. This practice evolved into the giving of red packets, with cash coins containing symbols and images carved into them being tied together with red string, which eventually evolved into the paper money we all give to our friends and family today.

Coins displaying a symbol or image of a particular animal are believed to be particularly lucky. This was especially true for coins touched by rulers or monarchs, known as ‘Touch Pieces’. Napoleon Bonaparte’s famous coin depicting an angel designed by the French sculptor Dupré is one such example, with his loss of this coin at the Battle of Waterloo being considered a sign of bad luck!

Many people believe that a coin can be lucky, with some preferring to keep coins with specific dates on them, like their birthday. Others are said to keep coins from the country of their ancestry, believing that these will bring them luck in life.
