The answer is a coin.
A coin is hidden inside a special Christmas cake passed around at Christmas time in Macedonia.
This usually takes place on 5th January when Christians in Macedonia start celebrating Christmas. There are various events with active participation from the local community and indulgence in local traditional food. When the celebrations draw to a close at night, a Christmas bread or cake with a coin inside is passed around for all those present to take a piece. It is believed that the person who gets the piece with the coin will be lucky the following year. He/she may even have to host the bonfire the upcoming year.
