These festive collectibles have been a Mint holiday tradition for years, with each edition showcasing a different coin. However, the Mint has stated that the 2025 ornaments will mark the final year of the series.
"No further releases [are] scheduled for this product beyond 2025 as we create new numismatic products to enhance your collection," the Mint notes.
The ornaments are priced at $36.75 each and limited to 5,000 units per design. Previous offerings in the series have included these items:

All of the coins in the ornaments were produced at the U.S. Mint’s facility in Philadelphia.
2025 United States Mint Holiday Ornament
The 2025 United States Mint Holiday Ornament features a festive teardrop shape. It contains the words "UNITED STATES MINT" and "2025" circling the reverse (tails side) of the enclosed Jefferson nickel. The ornament is adorned with bright blue and purple snowflakes, accented by elegant blue and silver swirls, and includes a silver ribbon for easy hanging.
The nickel displays Monticello, the iconic home of Founding Father and former U.S. President Thomas Jefferson. The design, created by sculptor Felix Schlag, has appeared on five-cent coins since 1938, except for the Westward Journey designs issued in 2004 and 2005.
The ornament is crafted from solid brass and finished in imitation rhodium. Its packaging showcases the ornament’s design on the front and a descriptive overview on the back.
2025 Mighty Minters Ornament
Aimed at younger collectors, the U.S. Mint also offers the more colorful and playful 2025 Mighty Minters Ornament. Two of the Mint’s Mighty Minters characters, Layla and Eli, appear on the ornament as they decorate a gingerbread house.
A Jefferson nickel is positioned at the top of the house, encircled by a green wreath with a red bow. "United States Mint" and "2025" are printed on the front door.
This ornament is also produced from solid brass and finished in silver imitation rhodium.
