The Tale of Peter Rabbit is a thrilling adventure containing humor, emotion, and an important moral lesson. At the start of the book, Peter is told by his mother to avoid Mr. McGregor’s garden, even though it contains all the vegetables a rabbit could ever want. Being quite mischievous, Peter of course does not heed his mother’s advice, but instead sneaks into the garden and enjoys his fill of the delicious food that grows there. Predictably, things do not go as Peter would hope, and soon he finds himself in a great deal of trouble. But through it all, he learns a valuable lesson about disobedience and the negative consequences we all must face when we break the rules.
Each of these 2022 The Tale of Peter Rabbit Coins is a proof-strike, meaning they were minted using special dies to give them a mirror-like quality. The devices also have a frosty appearance. These exquisite 1 oz gold specimens will arrive in an illustrated shipper with a display box and a Certificate of Authenticity from the Royal Mint.
