Coin

A very poor photo from an Isle of Man one pound coin .

In almost two weeks, we (Iranians) celebrate our new year and based on an old tradition we design a table with at least 7 things which their names start with "S" in our language, Farsi . The table is called "Haft-Sin" . Coin ("Sekkeh" in Farsi) is one of them .
Here are the rest of the possible thing that we put on the table:

Sabzeh - (Persian: سبزه‎)-wheat, barley, mung bean or lentil sprouts growing in a dish - symbolizing rebirth
Samanu - (Persian: سمنو‎)-sweet pudding made from wheat germ - symbolizing affluence
Senjed - (Persian: سنجد‎)-dried oleaster Wild Olive fruit - symbolizing love
Sir - (Persian: سیر‎)- garlic - symbolizing medicine
Sib - (Persian: سیب‎)- apples - symbolizing beauty and health
Somāq - (Persian: سماق‎)sumac fruit - symbolizing (the color of) sunrise
Serkeh - (Persian: سرکه‎) - vinegar - symbolizing old-age and patience
