In 1620, Sir John Melton made the first literary reference to clovers bringing good luck when he wrote “If a man walking in the fields find any four-leaved grass, he shall in a small while after find some good thing.” From there, the legend stuck.

Our four-leaf clover series has not been around quite as long. Regardless, we proudly bring you our lucky silver and gold charms each year. Perhaps you might spot the single four-leaf clover on the extraordinary new obverse of the silver edition.
