Chocolate coin

A variant of this is that chocolate coins are hidden somewhere in the house for children to find, often in the form of a treasure trail.

[2] During the Jewish festival of Hanukkah, chocolate coins are sometimes given to children in addition or in replacement of the traditional gelt (gift of money), typically with a dreidel.

According to the authors, "(…) [the] presentation [of their chocolate coin collection] is inspired by coin exhibitions, distancing this quotidian objects from their functionality and users, adding value —in the broadest sense of the term— through a distinguished position, flawless use of materials, lightning conditions, control of circulation, and additional information."

Each Dĕūro is made from uncertainly traced African cacao, which raises implications of forced and child labor, and is priced at a fixed rate of 1 euro.

For its first edition of this conceptual artwork created by antipodes café, a total of 6,000 copies were minted in Madrid on October 12, 2022.
