2016 Snugglepot and Cuddlepie 1/2oz Silver Proof Coin

This beautiful coin will make an ideal gift for a newborn baby.

Originally published in 1918, May Gibbs’ Tales of Snugglepot & Cuddlepie™ went on to become a much-loved Australian children’s classic. Her creation of a fantasy world within the Australian bush, using creatures and images that were well-recognised and found right across the country, has fascinated generations of Australians for decades.

The coin's reverse depicts a colour image of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie sitting on a tree branch, surrounded by gumnuts and gum leaves. The design includes the inscription ‘May Gibbs Snugglepot & Cuddlepie™’

The coin is housed in an elaborate themed gift card, with room to write the babies details, a family tree and a place to house a photograph.
