Description
Four coins of various origin are shown upon a verdant, leafy ground. In front and somewhat on top of the coins is a chest with a lock upon it.
Symbolism
The coins represent prosperity and the practical nature of life. Each coin comes from a different era and place on the earth, but all represent the currency that is payment for work well done and required for the purchase of necessary items as well as luxuries. The ivy in the background represents the earth, life, and growth. The chest, which is locked, is a repository for those things we hold sacred or private.
Card Meaning
The IV of Coins stands for the gains made from hard work. It is possible to acquire and save money at this time. While it is true that a penny saved is a penny earned, be careful though that you do not lock away all of your worldly gains and possessions without forethought. A key is required to open this chest, but if you look closely you will see that there is no key present in this card. You must be sure to have the ability to open the chest as needed before your choose to lock it.
Artistic Media
