Benin 2010 Christmas Tree Pine Scented Aroma + Railroad Train Proof

This SCENTED Coin with Color Bears the Aroma of Fresh Pine Trees!

Holiday Pine Tree Scented CoinJoin us on a fabulous railway adventure, one not just of sight, but also of smell! Just in time for the holidays, this exquisitely engraved railway-themed coin features a locomotive pulling boxcars and passenger cars through a landscape of pine or fir trees. The ultimate symbol of the holidays, the Christmas tree, graces this coin in both majestic full color as well as with its distinctive, sweetly aromatic balsam scent!

The Christmas Pine Tree is the second release in the new Famous Plants of the World coin series, and we still have a small supply of the first, the Cannabis Sativa featured below. Couple the scent of this bouquet with its extremely affordable price and tiny worldwide mintage of only 2,500, and you can see why we like this coin!

Scent Note - We've been asked if one has to handle the coin to enjoy its bouquet. Quite simply, no! Although the phrase "scratch and sniff" is well known, it is not necessary to touch the color areas of this coin in order to smell the aroma. One need only open the capsule and the fragrance can be distinctly detected!

Colorized 50 Cents Coins with Lenticular Technology

2010 Santa Claus & Rudolph Lenticular Color 50 CentsSanta & Rudolph on One Coin!
On, Donner! On, Blitzen! Santa and Rudolph - a terrific twosome - are together on this magical, copper-plated lenticular coin! You can almost hear the clip-clop of reindeer hooves on the rooftop. This magic sound (that all good little girls and boys long to hear on Christmas Eve) signals the arrival of Santa and his team of flying reindeer, led by Rudolph.

This is the fourth in the series of Lenticular Holiday Coins. New this year, the lenticular half-dollar is copper-plated, for an intriguing and visually arresting patina. The lenticular technology combines color with the illusion of movement - as you tilt the coin back and forth, Santa Claus magically switches places with Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer!

This is the third annual holiday coin to feature the Mint's 3-D lenticular technology, which gives the illusion of motion - as you tilt the coin back and forth, the toy locomotive seems to get underway, building up steam and roaring down the track!

Holiday Traditions - Silver Proof Coins featuring Traditional Holiday Scenes

2011 Holiday Traditions $20 Silver Proof New Holiday Traditions Silver!
The silent calm of just-fallen snow pervades the winterscape on Québec artist Rémi Clark's pastoral masterpiece! Two farmers or habitants drag a just-cut Christmas tree back to their homestead, set in rolling hills covered with snow. This coin’s combination of frosting, brilliant and mirrored finishes give the appearance of movement to the snow, and definition to the trees along the path.

Pastoral Winter Scene by John William HillPastoral Winter Scene - Hand-Cut Christmas Tree
This just-announced limited edition, serene winter scene (with only 8,000 coins available worldwide!) will appeal to lovers of winter, fans of the stark simplicity of rural life, and art aficionados seeking the work of talented, practicing artists. This silver proof's intricate and elegant design reveals the exceptional talents of the artist, the engraver and unparalleled RCM craftsmanship.

This is the fourth coin in the annual Holiday Traditions series of silver proofs, following 2009's Hanging the Stockings, 2008's Christmas Carolers and Tree and 2007's Wintertime Sleigh Ride Silver Proof. The superb designers and engravers at the Royal Canadian Mint have continued last year's theme of the Christmas tree and the old-fashioned look of the design. This is traditional engraving and design at its finest, and will be an inspiring gift for anyone who appreciates the thoughts of traditional Christmas activities.

Other Holiday Coins, Gifts, and Stocking Stuffers

Tuvalu Christmas Tree $1
O Christmas Tree!
Sold OutThis large (40.60 mm diameter) pure silver proof, struck by the Perth Mint in Australia, employs their proprietary colorization technology to portray a vibrantly hued Christmas tree, surrounded by festive motifs of the holiday season, such as twinkling stars, holly leaves and berries, and ribbons tied in a bow. The traditional sentiment "Wishing You a Very Merry Christmas" completes the yuletide scene.

There's no better way to celebrate the holidays and spread some holiday cheer - this coin makes a perfect gift with its luxurious burgundy velvet presentation case and festive, full-color outer box. The price can't be beat either!
