Santa’s sleigh is famously drawn through the night’s sky on Christmas Eve by a team of reindeer, and if you believe the popular Christmas song, the leader of that team has something special up his sleeve. Well, to be accurate his special characteristic is right on the tip of his nose.
Rudolph has a bright red nose that, as a young reindeer earned him the scorn and ridicule of others. As an adult, the bright light of that nose did no less than save Christmas one year and prove his value as the leader of Santa’s team. The brilliance of his nose is captured beautifully on the 2016 20 Gram Proof Christmas Island Rudolph Christmas Silver coin.
On the reverse side of the Rudolph Christmas Silver Coin you’ll find the image of Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, encircled by mistletoe and Christmas bells. A ruby is inserted as the nose of Rudolph on this beautiful design, with gold coloring added to Rudolph and the Christmas bells in the design.
The obverse of the 2016 20 Gram Proof Christmas Island Rudolph Christmas Silver Coin features the coat of arms for Kiribati, the issuing nation of this coin. The Republic of Kiribati is an island nation in the Pacific Ocean that is comprised of 33 atolls and reef islands, with one raised coral island; Banaba.
Referenced in the design of these coins is Christmas Island, which is an Australian territory in the Indian Ocean that lies south of Java, Indonesia. Each of these 2016 20 Gram Proof Christmas Island Rudolph Christmas Silver Coins ships inside a beautiful, silver-frosted shipping box with an outline of Rudolph in golden coloring, three snowflakes, and a red dot for his bright nose.
