Silver Ounce 2022 Goofy 90th Anniversary, Coin from Niue - detailed information

Niue, a sovereign state in free association with New Zealand, uses two official legal tender currencies. The New Zealand Dollar is the circulation currency for daily transactions, while the government also authorises legal tender coins in the Niue Dollar currency for collector's purposes.

A number of mints issue a large variety of commemorative, bullion and collector coins under the authority of Niue. These coins are dedicated to historical or general popular culture themes not related to Niue itself. Many of them are in standard bullion sizes - typically, one ounce of silver (abbreviated as 1 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum). Many of these feature famous movie characters.

The Mint says:
Disney’s Goofy celebrates his 90th anniversary. Introduced in the 1932 cartoon, Mickey’s Revue, this lovable and joyful feller is one of Walt Disney’s most iconic characters.

Officially licensed, this 1oz pure silver coin showcases Goofy and his grasshopper friend Wilbur, from the animated short Goofy and Wilbur - the first cartoon which featured Goofy in a solo role! The two friends are displayed in full colour, which contrasts beautifully against the mirror background. Detailed engravings are also added to further enhance the design. To confirm its legal tender status, the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II can be found on the obverse.

This wonderful piece is placed in a special edition Goofy 90th anniversary themed box, featuring delightful images of the character. A Certificate of Authenticity is printed at the back of the box along with the coin’s unique number. The limited worldwide mintage of 1,932 coins reflects the year that Goofy first appeared on screen, making this a unique anniversary memento for any Disney fan.
