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 yesteryear; qualities that will secure a special place as a
cherished family heirloom.
