The Christmas Nutcracker 2024 2oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin

Celebrating Christmas 2024, this festive coin is inspired by an enchanting Christmas Eve fairy-tale about a young girl’s love for a wooden nutcracker doll.

Staying up late to spend more time with her favourite gift, she witnesses a battle between an army of toy figures and a gang of mice, during which she bravely saves the Nutcracker from the wicked Mouse King.

In Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s classical ballet adaptation, Clara dreams the Nutcracker is transformed into a dashing prince who transports her to The Land of the Sweets, where the Sugar Plum Fairy arranges a series of spectacular dances to honour the young heroine’s courage.

Struck by The Perth Mint from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver, the coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.

With a 24-carat gold-plated nutcracker figurine at its centre, this beautiful 2oz silver antiqued piece is a wonderful celebration of a much-loved Christmas tradition. The Perth Mint will release just 2,500 of The Christmas Nutcracker 2024 2oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin.
