Christmas is a time for festive gatherings with family and friends and for decorating our homes with Christmas trees, large or small. In the case of those kept apart by distance, it is an opportunity to connect in other ways, including sending greeting cards through the mail. For children, and perhaps those young at heart, letters are sent to Santa at this time of year, in the hope that upon making it onto the 'nice' list exciting presents will arrive on Christmas Day!

This embellished postal numismatic cover contains a coloured uncirculated 50c Christmas coin from the Royal Australian Mint. The coin design is inspired by the beautiful NSW Christmas bush Ceratopetlum gummiferum and features a stunning five-pointed star in glorious colour framed with detailed sprays of leaves, flowers and fruit. This cover is numbered and limited to an edition of 400.
