| Reverse description | The reverse features a highly detailed, sculpted effigy of Donald Duck rendered in high relief, with the coin itself shaped to follow the exact silhouette of the character. Donald Duck is depicted standing in a confident pose with arms crossed, wearing his iconic sailor hat, bow tie, and jacket, with a smiling expression. The finely engraved design captures the classic Disney animated style with precise detail in the feathers, clothing, and facial features. The shaped flan follows the outline of the character from cap to feet, giving the coin a distinctive non-circular form. No legends appear on the reverse, allowing the sculptural portrait to dominate the entire field. |

| Additional information |
Niue has operated a licensed bullion and novelty program with the Walt Disney Company since the early 2000s, issuing legal tender under New Zealand monetary authority. The arrangement is straightforward: Niue collects licensing and minting revenue; collectors get Disney imagery on technically valid coin flans.
The 15.5 g weight places this squarely in the half-troy-ounce format favored by the New Zealand Mint for its themed issues — chosen for price accessibility rather than alignment with any traditional coinage standard.
