1 oz. Fine Silver Coloured Coin - Murano Holiday Wreath

An opening note, a flickering flame, a pine or cinnamon scent in the air—the tiniest details can suddenly evoke warm memories of the holiday season. It’s the loveliest trick our senses can play on us, warming our hearts and turning our thoughts to the friends, family and traditions we love. Thinking back on holidays past, one can almost see the wreath above the mantle and feel the warmth of a fire during a magical time that lives within us always. It is a sentiment that is beautifully embodied by our 2019 holiday coin, featuring selective colour and a Murano glass piece that is the crowning glory of our holiday tribute to yesteryear.Evoke happy memories of Christmas with this Murano glass coin! Design:Designed by artist Marie-Élaine Cusson, the reverse steps back in time to capture the heart-warming magic of an old-fashioned family Christmas. A roaring fire in the stone-lined fireplace conjures a feeling of warmth and coziness, while an extraordinary holiday wreath “hangs” on the brick wall above the mantle. Uniquely handcrafted by glassmakers Giorgio and Bernardino Vio of Murano, Italy, the bright green wreath complements the coloured tree, whose traditional mix of decorations, flowers, bows and ribbon garland culminate in a star-shaped topper. The brightly wrapped gifts and a bow on the wooden rocking horse hint at an exhilarating moment of discovery to come—a moment that is at the heart of many memories of holidays past. The reverse also features the engraved word “CANADA” and the year “2019”. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
