This innovative collectible is not only a beautiful coin but it can also be used as a tree ornament!
The tradition of the Christmas tree is thought to have originated in Germany in the 16th century, although it wasn't until the 19th century that the custom spread to other parts of the world. Today many different types of ornaments are placed on tress to celebrate Christmas, and this unique coin from the Perth Mint adds to the list. The coin comes with a star shaped coin capsule that has a hole for a ribbon. This allows the coin to be displayed on your Christmas tree.
The reverse of this coin was designed by Tom Vaughn and features a colourized Christmas tree with a blazing star at the top. The snow covered tree is decorated simply with lights and red balls, and is surrounded by native trees of Australia.
This coin makes for a wonderful holiday gift and is sure to become a family heirloom.
ABOUT THE PERTH MINT
The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint's 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
This coin ships in a full colour grapic holder with a star shaped coin capsule that allows the coin to function as a Christmas ornament.
