[QUOTE="Darkhorse, post: 863029, member: 3454"]Several very, very cheesy websites on the internet are devoted to lucky sixpence coins - which are usually very common copper-nickel ones from the 50s and 60s. This practice is apparently more of an English custom, but my bride to be does have strong English and Irish roots, so I thought I may see if I can put a sixpence in her shoe. But I can't decide if I should go with the common Elizabeth one, maybe a worn young Victoria one, or maybe even an Irish sixpence. Have any of you followed this tradition with your brides? Or is it just pure cheese?[/QUOTE]
