The 2017 1 oz Silver Steamboat Willie coin from the New Zealand mint is a must for collectors and cartoon fans. Each coin contains one troy ounce of fine .999 silver and features the iconic Walt Disney character, Mickey Mouse as he appeared in the 1928 animated short film, Steamboat Willie.
Although many people consider the Steamboat Willie cartoon to be Mickey and Minnie's debut, it was actually the third outing for the famous mouse and his girlfriend. However, Steamboat Willie was Mickey's first official appearance. It was also the world's first fully synchronised sound cartoon and became one of the most popular animated films of its time. In 2007, Disney reworked the cartoon's opening scene of Mickey whistling at the helm of his steamboat and it's now used as the introduction to the studio's animated features. The scene is the inspiration for the 2017 Silver Steamboat Willie coin.
The Steamboat Willie coins were introduced in 2014 as part of Niue's Disney Classics series. Each issue has been incredibly popular with collectors thanks to the classic design and limited mintage. Only 250,000 of these beautiful 2017 1oz Silver Steamboat Willie coins will be issued globally so demand is sure to be high.
