| A brief annotation | Along with wishes of happiness and good health we tend to bring the newborn some present as a material, tangible evidence of our good will reminding the recipient later in life that his or her arrival in this world was met with great joy. Many a jewellery box contains a silver spoon or horseshoe shaped brooch, a golden cross or heart on a chain. A popular present is a silver or gold coin serving as a symbolic starting capital for a materially secure life. The Baby Coin issued by the Bank of Latvia is just such a present. The concept behind it is the wish to secure family ties, for children represent an existential issue for any country and nation. Both the giver and the taker of present, the Baby Coin, will enjoy the little mouse on the reverse of the coin pulling a chest full of sweet dreams. |

Монета пропитана этносом и позитивом. Фольклорные самобытные мотивы выглядят всегда более достойно, чем аморфный космополитизм, если мы говорим об искусстве, представляющим какую-то конкретную страну.

Позитивно, но не более.
