Bižuterie in Jablonec nad Nisou

Coining in Jablonec nad Nisou was the idea of Jiří Dostál, a long-term pedagogue and director of the local secondary school of arts and crafts (and later a higher vocational school). His vision of the Bižuterie company (in variously changed positions) was realized mainly by Jan Vízek, the business director of the Mint, in the years 1993–2010.
The trial operation began in Jablonec nad Nisou on June 23, 1993, and the Czech National Bank approved first samples of coins a day later. The operation was ceremoniously opened on July 1, 1993. Workshop in Jablonec nad Nisou became a real mint in 1994. It was equipped with an automatic reduction machine Bema, a press for reproducing Sack & Kiesselbach embossing tools and a device for surface treatment of stamping dies.
