Coin ceremony
The Coin Ceremony is an event which takes place at the keel laying, in the early stages of a ship's construction. In it, the shipbuilders place one or two coins under the keelblock of the new ship to bless the ship and as a symbol of good fortune.〔(QM2 at maritime matters:see 4 July 2002 ) retrieved 25 October 2009〕〔(Gold Bulletin: ''Gold coin used in traditional maritime ceremony'' ) Friday, 9 May 2008, retrieved 25 October 2009〕 The coins are not normally fixed in place and are often retrieved when the ship sails out of the dry-dock,〔(The Northern Advocate:''Keel ceremony milestone in patrol boat construction'' ) Mike Dinsdale, 24 March 2006〕 (although they are sometimes welded to the keel).〔(Cruises:''OCEANIA CRUISES AND FINCANTIERI COMMENCE CONSTRUCTION OF MARINA'' ) 7 March 2009〕
The Mast Stepping ceremony is a similar event which occurs towards the end of a ship's construction, and involves the placing of coins underneath the mast of a ship. In shipbuilding today, the coins are normally welded beneath the radar mast.〔(US Navy press release: ''Crew of New Multimission Destroyer Honors Namesake in Mast Stepping Ceremony'' ) 17 July 2009, retrieved 25 October 2009〕
