The Croatian National Bank has released its first numismatic euro coin, marking a significant milestone for the country’s numismatic heritage.
The coin has been minted by the Croatian Mint and is a limited edition series consisting of only 500 pieces.
The numismatic coin showcases the significance of new beginnings as it features the iconic necktie, a decorative item of clothing attributed to the Croatians, which has become a symbol of culture worldwide.
The “Contour Necktie” edition is composed of two coins of different shapes, made of gold and silver, respectively. The gold coin follows the contours of the necktie and is inserted into the silver coin, whose opening harmoniously follows the given shape. The combination of these two coins creates a complete and unique forging.
The necktie, as an integral part of Croatian culture, has a rich and fascinating history. Originating from Croatian soldiers who served in the Thirty Years’ War, the necktie has evolved into a global fashion accessory, worn by people from all walks of life.
This numismatic coin pays tribute to this iconic symbol, commemorating its significance and role in the cultural heritage of Croatia. The limited edition series provides a unique opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike to acquire a lasting and valuable memory of the necktie’s origin.
