But it is not too late to give my twelve wishes. After all, it is still 17 days before Christmas!
Did I tell you that time really just flies by so fast? It seems like I said that phrase every month to and
, and here we are at the end of the year!
Every year, Apmex sends a Holiday Gift Guide. It pretty substantial, using cardstock paper.
It is really neat... you can check out the photos in the holiday catalog for things of interest without having to search their online store, where they have thousands of products.
It has a diameter of 40mm, the same as the American Silver Eagle. Only a few coins, like Korean Silver Chiwoo Cheonwang series and the Australian Swan series, can say the same.
And there it is, my Christmas wish for Day 1.

Where is Vanuatu?
You can read about it in the links given below. I personally had a hard time looking for photos.
On most of Vanuatu’s islands, unpaved roads link coastal settlements; there are few interior roads. Interisland transportation is by boat or airplane. Major airports are located near Port-Vila, near Luganville on Espiritu Santo, and on the northwest side of Tanna. Many smaller airfields are scattered throughout the islands.
During the last five years, the number of mints manufacturing silver and gold coins on behalf of small countries has increased. It makes one wonder how much of the money made on the coins goes back to these small countries.
I found this article about Tuvalu and the Perth Mint: https://coinweek.com/tuvalu-perth-mint-world-coins-island-nation/
