2024 Perth Mint Christmas Nutcracker 2oz Silver Antiqued Gold Plated Coin

Inspired by E.T.A. Hoffmann’s beloved 1816 holiday fairy tale and Tchaikovsky’s world-famous ballet, this spectacular issue from The Perth Mint captures the timeless magic of The Nutcracker. Struck from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver, the coin features rich selective coloring and an exquisite antiqued finish that brings the heroic Christmas Eve narrative to vivid life. Central to its visual brilliance is a 24-carat gold-plated nutcracker figurine insert, creating an extraordinary three-dimensional centerpiece for high-end proof collectors.

Please Note: This coin does not include the outer shipper box. The coin, original presentation box, and Certificate of Authenticity (COA) are included.

As an official Australian legal tender release, the coin carries the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III alongside a special 'P125' mintmark celebrating The Perth Mint's 125th anniversary. The combination of classic holiday storytelling, pure precious metal content, and innovative numismatic craftsmanship ensures maximum eye appeal and enduring collector value across the global secondary market.

Housed in a custom display case with a clear lid, presentation gift box, and numbered Certificate of Authenticity, this release offers maximum protection and flawless presentation. Its unique gold-plated central element, low limited mintage, and festive appeal make it an essential acquisition for world coin enthusiasts and dedicated Australian decimal collectors.
