An important part of any St. Nicholas Day celebration, gold foil chocolate coins are traditionally included in the St. Nicholas stocking. They commemorate Saint Nicholas saving three poor peasant daughters from a life of sin and despair, when he threw gold coins in their window for their marriage dowries. The coins are traditionally believed to have landed into their stockings/shoes close to the fireplace--why we hang Christmas stockings on the fireplace today.

Tastefully packaged in a cellophane bag tied with ribbon, our gold-foil coins include a lovely label with a hymn from the church.

A nice St. Nicholas Day tradition for your family and/or parish. 

Also a lovely stocking stuffer or part of a gift package for teachers, friends, and co-workers.
