2015 Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland Coin This unique coin was created to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Lewis Carroll’s classic story, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. While most people know it as Alice in Wonderland, the title was originally Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland when it was first published on November 26, 1865. The one feature that makes this coin totally unique is the fact that in the middle, there is a fully functioning clock. A coin like this has never been created before and it would be a treasured addition to any collection. Since this has a real clock in the middle, it has a battery. The clock takes a silver oxide battery and the Perth Mint has recommended changing it every 3 years or so. The 2015 Alice in Wonderland coin was struck by the Perth Mint in Australia for the country of Tuvalu. Each one has 2 Troy oz. of .999 fine silver surrounding the fully functioning clock. Additionally, this coin has been given an antiqued finish by hand, so each one is a little different and truly a fine work of art. The total mintage of this coin will not exceed 2,500 pieces. Original Government Packaging The Alice in Wonderland clock coin comes with all of its original themed packaging. The outside packaging consists of a box showing Alice and the Mad Hatter along with the Cheshire cat in front of a clock with the White Rabbit. When you open the flap of the outside packaging, the inside of the flap contains the certificate of authenticity, while the body contains the display of the coin. The coin is housed in a regal latex case with a clean black and white design. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland Design The obverse of the coin displays a small depiction of Queen Elizabeth II above the back of the clock. Bordering the clock is a ring of stems and 3 roses. The outermost ring of the design has the words “2 DOLLARS,” “TUVALU 2015,” and “QUEEN ELIZABETH II.” On this side of the clock are the words “OH MY EARS AND WHISKERS, HOW LATE IT’S GETTING!” The antiqued finish provides a high level of contrast and highlights each aspect of the design. On the reverse, the face of the clock can be seen. At the center of the face is the White Rabbit. Bordering the face in a circle are the words “OH DEAR! OH DEAR! I SHALL BE LATE!” Outside the clock is a highly detailed design showing Alice, the Cheshire cat, and a number of playing cards. The “P” mint mark of the Perth Mint is centered just below the clock. Between Alice and the Cheshire cat near the very edge are the words “2 OZ” and “999 SILVER.” The 2015-P Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland silver coin is sure to add some character to any collection. With a total mintage of only 2,500 coins, add this unique work of art to your collection while you can!
