The sixth of the New Seven Wonders of the World is Taj Mahal monument in India. The legendary monument is commemorated by a gold coin of the Czech Mint weighing one troy ounce.

Emperor Shah Jahan was one of the greatest rulers in the history of the Indian peninsula. During his reign, the Mughal Empire experienced a golden age, but he did not become immortal because of conquests or political intrigues. His undying love is what made history. He had several wives, but he loved only one. They made an inseparable couple, and when Mumtaz Mahal died giving birth to her fourteenth child, Shah Jahan never fully recovered from her death. As a testament to the love that extended beyond the grave, he had built a monument in the name of Taj Mahal. The mausoleum, which was to outshine all the buildings of the world, was twenty-two years in the making. The best architects and artists from every corner of the planet worked on it. Twenty thousand workers and a thousand elephants were on hand , bringing building materials from all over Asia - marble from Rajasthan, jasper from the Punjab, jade from China, turquoise from Nepal, lazurite from Afghanistan, sapphire from Sri Lanka, carnelian from Arabia. The finished monument looked as if it had fallen out of the Tales of the Thousand and One Nights. The emphasis was on symmetry, symbolizing perfection and God's plan. The white mausoleum with its massive dome stood on a square base, surrounded by four minarets, and the tomb of the Empress was placed right in the middle of the structure. The only thing that today breaks the perfect symmetry of the Taj Mahal is the tomb of Shah Jahan, which was added later. The Emperor outlived his wife by thirty-five years.

The reverse side of the coin, which is the work of medal maker Ludmila Kracíková, DiS., presents the mausoleum of the Taj Mahal. The front of the monument is supplemented with the English inscription TAJ MAHAL. On the obverse side, which is common to the whole cycle, all the new seven wonders of the world appear - the Brazilian statue of Christ the Saviour, the Jordanian rock city of Petra, the Mayan city of Chichén Itzá in Mexico, the Roman Colosseum, the Indian monument of the Taj Mahal, the Inca seat of Machu Picchu in Peru and the Great Wall of China. As the coins of the Czech Mint are issued with the foreign license of the island of Niue, they also bear its national emblem, the nominal value of 50 DOLLARS (NZD) and the year of issue 2025 on the obverse side.

The mintage is only 200 one-ounce coins.
