Just wondering how many coins actually minted coins specifically for Xmas. I cannot think of too many so this would be a post of coins of winter related coins, (mind you, it's actually summer down under)

I'll post some examples of winter related coins:

Soviet 1987 medal 1st series

Post any other winter related coins if you have them!!!

Marshall Islands and the Isle of Man also issue Christmas related coins. I know the Marshall Islands coins are $5 pieces, I don't know if they do the larger denominations as well. The Isle of Man are 50 pence coins and have been issued every year since 1980.
