Santa Claus is often viewed as a jolly, hefty older man with a white beard who wears a red outfit with white piping as he crisscrosses the world on Christmas Eve delivering gifts to boys and girls. Santa uses the chimney to access the homes of families and leave gifts for the good folks, and a lump of coal for the naughty ones.

The concept of Santa Claus is rooted in the actions of St. Nicholas, a man who lived in modern-day Turkey in the late 3^rd and early 4^th centuries. Gifted wealth through his family, St. Nicholas reportedly gave away his wealth to the needy in his town. It is rumored that he would sneak small coins and tokens into stockings hung by the chimney to try. That gave rise to a tradition that continues to this day.

Obverse

For the obverse design of the 1 oz Copper Fireplace Round, a scene similar to that of St. Nicholas plays out in this design. Santa Claus stands near a roaring fire as he passes out gifts in the dark of night. He is getting ready to leave small trinkets in the two stockings hanging along the mantle of the fireplace. Inscriptions include the storybook phrase Merry Christmas to All, And To All a Good Night.

Reverse

The reverse face of 1 oz Copper Fireplace Rounds shares the same design the Osborne Mint uses on all its Christmas-themed copper rounds. This field is dominated by a variety of snowflakes, each one a different size and shape than the next.

Ordering

These 1 oz Copper Fireplace Rounds come from the Osborne Mint, the oldest continuously operating private mint in the US. The rounds have a satin finish and have carefully polished background fields to create cameo visuals. As such, you will notice frosted designs and mirrored background fields. Individual rounds ship in plastic flips, multiples of 20 arrive in tubes, and multiples of 500 are available in mint-strapped cardboard boxes.
