| Additional information |
Niue has operated as a reliable vehicle for Disney-licensed bullion and collector issues since the early 2010s, leveraging its status as a New Zealand associated state to produce legal tender struck by the New Zealand Mint in Auckland. This piece commemorates Mickey Mouse's first synchronized sound appearance in Steamboat Willie, released November 18, 1928 — the specific origin point Disney and its licensees consistently use as the character's official birthday.
At one gram, the gold content is nominal; these exist as collectibles first.
