Our Top 10 RCM Coins for Holiday Gifting (2025)
1) $20 Fine Silver Pysanka (1 oz, colourized)
An annual fan favourite for good reason. The Ukrainian egg-art motif is vivid, symbolic, and instantly giftable. The 2025 Pysanka coin pairs brilliant colour with 99.99% pure silver—an eye-catching keepsake that looks stunning in photos and even better in hand. Because this series is known to sell fast, it’s a smart pick if you want a memorable present with strong collector appeal.
2) $20 Snowflake Hexagon (1 oz, with crystal)
If you want a coin that feels like the holidays, this is it. The hexagon shape mirrors a snowflake’s geometry, and the shimmering crystal insert adds sparkle under the tree. Struck in 99.99% silver with a winter-perfect design, it’s a natural centrepiece for your Christmas coin gift lineup.
3) 50-Cent Whimsical Holiday Tree (lenticular)
A perfect stocking stuffer. Tilt the coin and a cheerful scene comes to life—think polar bear antics and festive fun. Lenticular technology is interactive and kid-friendly, making this an easy win for families, teachers, and anyone who appreciates a touch of whimsy. It’s also budget-friendly and a great entry point for new collectors.
4) $10 Welcome to the World! (½ oz, incuse baby feet)
Looking for a new-baby gift that families won’t outgrow? This beloved series features tiny baby feet struck incuse into .9999 silver—simple, sweet, and meaningful. It ships in presentation packaging, so it’s ready to gift. Add a note with the baby’s name and birthdate to make it personal.

Gifting on a budget? This greeting-card style presentation includes five 2025-dated Canadian circulation coins plus a set-exclusive $1 design with wintry charm. It’s practical, affordable, and fun to open—ideal for teachers, neighbours, or colleagues.
6) Classic Uncirculated Coin Set (2025)
The starter set that never goes out of style. You’ll get all standard 2025 denominations in uncirculated condition with protective packaging. It’s a smart way to mark the year, and a perfect gift idea for coin collectors who love pristine examples of current coinage.
7) Fine Silver Proof Dollar — Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (2000-2025)
A deeply meaningful issue for 2025 that honours the Tomb’s 25th anniversary. The design is powerful, detailed, and ideal for those who value remembrance and Canadian history. As a centerpiece coin, the 2025 Proof Dollar offers both artistic merit and emotional resonance.
8) Fine Silver Proof Set — Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (7-coin set)
Want to make a statement? This premium set includes a set-exclusive, selectively gold-plated version of the 2025 Proof Dollar along with carefully struck proofs of each denomination. It’s a top-tier gift that feels significant the moment it’s opened.
9) Treasured Silver Maple Leaf — Year of the Snake Privy (1 oz)
The iconic Silver Maple Leaf meets Lunar New Year with a special snake privy mark and gift-ready packaging. This coin bridges two audiences—investors and collectors—making it one of the most versatile holiday picks of the year.
10) Lunar Year of the Snake — 1 oz Fine Silver (collector coin)
Crisp folk-art styling, rich symbolism, and pure silver content add up to an excellent gift that also works for Lunar New Year. If you’re shopping for someone born in a Snake year—or someone who loves Zodiac themes—this is a thoughtful, timely choice.
How to Choose the Right Coin Gift
Match the theme to the person.
- For playful spirits or younger giftees: the Holiday Tree lenticular.
- For new parents: Welcome to the World.
- For heritage and art fans: Pysanka.
- For winter magic: the Snowflake Hexagon.
- For investors and Maple Leaf loyalists: the Treasured SML Snake privy.
- For solemn, meaningful gifting: the Proof Dollar or Proof Set.
Consider the presentation.
Most RCM coins come boxed or carded, with a certificate where applicable. Add a hand-written note for an extra personal touch—include why you chose that theme.
Think long-term.
Low mintages and series with strong followings (Pysanka, Lunar, Maple Leaf) make especially savvy gifts. They’re easy to cherish today and exciting to hold onto for the future.
