For a few years, 1981- 2005, Balloon Fiesta minted collectable coins.

Collector Gary Henderson has been keeping the history of these and has offered us these details on the beautiful coins. Like other items on the Collector’s Corner, these items are not available for sale via Balloon Fiesta. They are presented here for information, education, enjoyment and as a reference to actual collectors. Click on the images to see the images in larger format.

Thanks Gary!
