2022 Canada $50 The Magic of the Season Fine Silver Coin (No Tax)

Celebrate the magic of the holidays with a surprise visit and an unexpected dash of colour! No matter our age, many of us would love to catch a glimpse of Santa Claus and his reindeer-powered sleigh, as they complete their round-the-world trip each Christmas Eve. Both Santa and one of his reindeer bring the magic to this fine silver coin, but the engraving also includes a hidden colour element that will really get you into the holiday spirit—simply view the design under a black light (included), and the effect will fill you with a childlike sense of awe and wonder!

The 1823 poem A Visit from St. Nicholas (also known as ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas) first told us that Santa’s sleigh was pulled by “eight tiny reindeer.”

The coin features a festive reverse design by artist Lisa Thomson-Khan, whose depiction of Santa Claus and one of his reindeer captures some of the magic of the holiday season. When the design is viewed under black light, colourful lights illuminate the snow-covered trees. The obverse features a tree background pattern and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
