Happiness soars with ancient Chinese symbols.
The magpie on this coin is one of China’s mostcommon and powerful symbols of happiness. Itsname (xi que) translates directlyto “the bird ofhappiness”. In fact, the decorations at Chineseweddings will often feature two magpies to wish“double happiness” for the bride and groom.
The lotus flower that creates the background onthis coin is another visual and auditory symbol forhappiness. Its name (lian) sounds identical to theword “continuous”. Combining the magpie withlotus flowers is a poignant way to express a wishfor prolonged happiness, luck and success.
