The original inspiration for Santa Claus is Saint Nicholas, a 4th-century Christian bishop from Myra, a town in modern-day Turkey. He was known for his acts of kindness and generosity, especially toward children and the less fortunate. The feast day of Saint Nicholas, December 6th, is still celebrated in many countries.
In the United Kingdom and some other English-speaking countries, Santa Claus is often referred to as Father Christmas. This interpretation is similar to the traditional image of a plump, bearded man dressed in red who brings gifts to children on Christmas Eve.
The obverse side of the Santa on the Moon Silver Round comes with a depiction of Santa Claus taking a moment to relax on the Moon. In this design, Santa rests on a crescent Moon with an ornament ball dangling from one tip of the Moon and a tree behind Santa.
On the reverse field of 1 oz Santa on the Moon Silver Rounds, you will find the image of a large Christmas bell. This is accompanied by the identifying hallmarks of the round, as well as holly leaves and the phrase MERRY CHRISTMAS.
These 1 oz Santa on the Moon Silver Rounds are offered to you in protective plastic capsules for delivery, making it easy to give the gift of silver this Christmas.
