  SANTA GOT HIS MEDAL

  'Two days after Christmas,
  And all through coin land,
  Collectors and coin buyers
  Check their collections at hand.

  Bullion coin buyers
  Return from bank vaults,
  Empty-handed from divesting,
  False coins without faults.

  Proof coin set collectors
  Both eyes with a glint
  Just received two packages
  From our American Mint.

  Lincoln diebreak collectors
  Adjust microscopes,
  A cent with mint flaws
  Increases their hopes!

  Those foreign coin collectors
  Prize items at hand
  World pleasure experienced
  From every coin's far-off land.

  Asylum book members
  Still high you can see,
  Received a rare tome
  He now reads with great glee!

  But this holiday Santa,
  A medal collector he,
  Got a new specimen
  For the family to see.

  He holds up his prize
  For his family's eyes.
  And claims with great mettle
  "Santa DID get his medal!"
