Niue has functioned as a prolific licensing vehicle for the New Zealand-administered collector coin market since the 1990s, issuing silver rounds under its sovereign authority that have no practical circulation role whatsoever. This piece draws on the 1967 Rudyard Kipling adaptation — Disney's last animated feature to receive direct input from Walt Disney himself, who died before its completion.
