The first edition of the holiday series of coins
You can complain that Christmas has become a commercial holiday, increasingly diverging from the tradition in favor of thoughtless consumerism. However, as Christmas Eve approaches, we postpone these discussions aside, enjoying this unique time together.

On the reverse of the 20-dollar coin, there is a colorful, festive theme of a star, plant (Bethlehem star), colorful candy and Christmas balls. The 2013 numismatic coin was made of 1 oz pure silver.
