A PLAYFUL DESIGN

Take a sneak peek inside Santa’s workshop—see how the elves are checking the list (twice) and loading Santa’s magical sleigh! It’s a colourful, festive scene that is sure to put a smile on your face.

MOTION-FILLED REVERSE

Each coin is crafted in colour using the latest lenticular technology to deliver fluid, uninterrupted movement. Simply tip the coin to change your viewing angle, and the scene suddenly shifts as some of the gifts accidentally slip from the top of the pile!

DID YOU KNOW?

Santa’s elves were a well-kept secret until the 1800s—in fact, no one knew Santa Claus himself was a “jolly old elf” until it was revealed in the poem A Visit from St. Nicholas (you probably know it as The Night Before Christmas).

DESIGN & ARTIST

Designed by Canadian artist Jesse Koreck, the coin’s reverse is enhanced with lenticular technology, which creates a sense of motion through the seamless transition between two interlaced colour images. Both images capture the excitement and activity at the North Pole on Christmas Eve, as Santa’s industrious elves load toys and gift boxes onto his magical sleigh. While one helper is checking the list, the elf in the foreground races to assist another with a stack of gifts; when the coin is tipped, the second image shows the panic on the elves’ faces as some of the gifts fall from the top of the pile. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

PACKAGING

Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
