The latest in this popular RAM series, this official Australian legal tender 50c coin pays homage to the Queensland Christmas Orchid – Calanthe triplicata. A rare, elegant Australian native, the Christmas Orchid is seen to herald the Festive Season when it unfurls its snowy blossoms. Reimagined as an ornate decoration, the full-colour portrayal of the Christmas Orchid is surrounded by a flourish of Art Nouveau floral motifs. Enhancing the great beauty of the design, each coin is set in an attractive colour card featuring gold foiling – a card that can be hung as a decoration on your Christmas Tree!
