The United States Mint will begin accepting orders for the 2024 editions of the Mighty Minters Ornament and the United States Mint Holiday Ornament on October 1 at noon ET. There are no household order limits for either ornament.

The Mint has offered the Holiday Ornaments for six consecutive years. This year, both ornaments feature an uncirculated 2024 Kennedy Half Dollar. An engraved version of the official United States Mint seal is on the back of the ornaments, along with “Made in the USA” and “©2024 U.S. Mint.” The ornaments are hand-crafted and produced in solid brass, and finished with imitation rhodium, giving some of its elements a silver sheen.

Mighty Minters Ornament

The 2024 ornament—themed “Giving Gifts of Gratitude”—depicts Mighty Minters Lina, Eli, and Timothy delivering gifts. Timothy is pulling a sleigh bearing a large gift that displays the reverse of the Kennedy Half Dollar. A cheerful red ribbon adorns the top of the ornament with the words “2024“ and “UNITED STATES MINT” on either side of the bow. Snowflakes are on each side of the ribbon.

The festive cardboard packaging replicates the ornament’s front design, while the back of the packaging contains descriptive information about the coin and the Mighty Minters on the ornament and the signature of the Mint Director.

2024 United States Mint Ornament

This year, the ornament has a festive wreath-like design with the reverse of the half dollar displayed on the front. The words “UNITED STATES MINT“ and “2024“ encircle the coin with a tiny band of hollies and berries. Bright red poinsettias and green foliage form a wreath around the outer band.

The holiday ornament is housed in a blue box with a navy platform. The official United States Mint seal and the words “2024 United States Mint Ornament” are hot stamped in silver foil on the top of the lid. A separate certificate of authenticity is included that provides information about the coin and the ornament.

Both ornaments are priced at $35.00. To set up REMIND ME alerts, please visit:
