Description
The familiar 12 Days of Christmas song has been a staple of holiday carols for decades, and we have all enjoyed singing “On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, a Partridge in a Pear Tree”. Mintage is limited to 10,000 coins. As a pure silver coin struck by the Royal Canadian Mint, this item is GST/HST exempt.
The Design:
Designed by Canadian artist Risto Turunen, your coin features a stylized scene of a partridge posed gracefully in a fruit-laden pear tree before a frosty window, beyond which glowing snowflakes fall. The base of the tree, bedecked by holly and pinecones, features a red enameled ribbon. The polished frame surrounding the image is embossed with the words "CANADA" and "10 DOLLARS" and the year "2013."
