Congratulations on the new arrival

Cross their palm with silver with this traditional coin keepsake

You can’t wait for that first cuddle, but amidst all the excitement, don’t forget a card and a gift. Crossing their palm with silver is a customary way to wish a new baby the best possible start in life. Honour that tradition, but with a delightful contemporary twist, with this silver penny from The Royal Mint. Send them your love, and they’ll have a keepsake to treasure long even when they’re taller than you. Inside the accompanying card there’s room for your own handwritten message to congratulate the proud parents. Children grow up so fast. Capture this magical moment with a year-dated silver penny, symbolising good luck and future prosperity, the perfect way to share in the joy of a new arrival.
