![]() You also get the certificate of authentication - a booklet of stiff card showing at the top - the Royal Mint Logo with the words "Royal Mint Original Maker", in the middle - the Snowman enterprises Logo with the words "2020 Snowman Silver Proof Coin" and then you also have a number e.g 3258 which tells you what number coin you own from a mintage of 7,000 coins. ![]() The book contains lovely coloured illustrations, and is made of good quality paper. Underneath you will find a booklet which tells the story - FIRST PAGE "A Magical Adventure." SECOND PAGE "Together at Christmas" THIRD PAGE "A Global Phenomenon" FOURTH PAGE "A Timeless Classic" FIFTH PAGE talks about Raymond Briggs and the SIXTH PAGE talks about the designer Robin Shaw. Around the edge is written "ELIZABETH II D.G. Turn it over and you have the obverse by Jody Clark, showing the image of the queen in middle. ![]() The coin is in a capsule, and the first side you see is the reverse showing a coloured image of the Snowman hugging James by Robin Shaw. The box is not sealed so you can lift the top off, and remove the coin to take a closer look. Turn the box over, and you can see the back of the coin. When you open the box, the first item you see is the coin placed in a clear Perspex box you see the reverse of the coin in colour in the middle. You won't notice from any pictures but the box has a sparkle to it which you will see in different lights which some people will find a pretty addition. Take off the sleeve, and you have a white box with "the SnowmanTM" written in black on the front. It comes in a cardboard sleeve with the Royal Mint logo on the front a coloured image showing the Snowman, and James hugging, and at the bottom you see the of the Snowman Enterprises Logo, All the usually information is written on the back of the sleeve. Original Price was £67.50 priced the same as the others. It is a Limited Edition Presentation (LEP) of 7,000 and the Royal Mint did state it was the lowest ever mintage. It is the best one yet in terms of design - simple, meaningful in the present climate, and the colour toning is good. I would recommend this coin, and it will see it's value rise although it is a keeper for the long term. The first coin, which was nice was produced in 2018, the next was 2019 another good design, and this is the 3rd in the series probably the best design yet!Īll in all this is a lovely coin, and one which rightly sold out at the mint.
