My Collection
The perfect
family heirloom
to last generations.
Read about Tony Bianco's 3 part design process
Stockings hanging from the fireplace are a sure sign that the
Holidays have begun. But there was a time when hanging
stockings was an everyday sight as people regularly dried
their clothes by the fire. One can almost imagine a parent or
husband slipping a small gift into a stocking as a surprise.
The link between stockings and Christmas began to emerge
with the legend of Saint Nicholas. Centuries later, Clement
Moore (1779-1863) penned his famous words “...The stockings
were hung by the chimney with care...” and stockings became a
Holiday fixture—one that endures to this day.
Highlights: The classic design of this coin will inspire a sense
of excitement in young and old alike. Its upscale composition
of 99.99% pure silver and traditional engraving evoke a sense
of yesteryear; qualities that will secure a special place as a
cherished family heirloom.
Reverse: Two children hang stockings on the fireplace in
anticipation of Santa’s visit.
This is a wonderful piece that quickly brings back memories of Christmas past with the family as a child and of Christmas now watching the young ones hang their stockings. Its been a hit with all who have seen my modest collection.

We were suggested the ideas of coins for Chistmas gifts, and I just hadn't thought about it before. We bought this for a friends 4 month old son. It was the year of his birth and also his first Christmas. Kids are overwhelmed with toys and clothes, that a nice piece or momento that they can look back upon is a great gift. I will purchase more coins in the future now for my own children, family members and new babies as a way to commemorate their birth year!
