Whilst to some collectors this may appear gimmicky, no doubt it provides a unique spin for a pure silver numismatic coin as its claim to fame will be that it is the first "official minted" coin that comes in a snow globe.

Regardless of whether this piece will appreciate in value over time, it is still a beautiful art piece that makes a great gift and is Limited mintage to only 2017 pieces worldwide.

In original Box with Certificate of Authenticity

Celebrating spring time in Japan, the globe appropriately displays not a snowy landscape but the famous cherry blossom known as sakura. Thousands of pink flower petals slowly float and descend onto a charming little silver coin displaying a cherry tree in full bloom and a couple in embrace celebrating the Hanami festival. The snow globe itself is handcrafted in Vienna by the Perzy family business who invented the globes in the 19th century. The Cherry Blossom Globe is a marvelous numismamtic collectible that takes the viewer on an emotional journey like few other coins ever have. The romantic and ephemeral nature of the spring bloom and life itself are gracefully presented and make the Cherry Blossom Globe a truly exceptional display piece. The silver coin is securely mounted inside the globe and cannot be removed.

I also think it is pieces like these that can be used as a gateway for people to get into the hobby of coin collecting.
