Despite a relatively subdued release schedule compared to the early day, Disney bullion coins are still being released, and the latest, by MTB-PAMP, signifies a new confidence in the brand. We see this in the mintages, with have risen from around 10,000, to 25,000 here. Also telling is the return of gold, absent in most new issues since late 2022.

Eschewing the usual Mickey and friends characters, they’ve gone for something altogether more interesting, with this utterly classic depiction of Scrooge McDuck diving into his infamous vault of money. Spectacles on his beak, his iconic top hat falling away, it doesn’t get any more Disney than this, and makes such a nice change from the more sickly-sweet characters we’re usually lumbered with. The obverse features the Public Seal of Niue as its only graphic element.

A pair of one-ounce coins, including the aforementioned return of gold, and with a mintage bumped up to 250. The silver comes encapsulated, with the gold presented in slab-like TEP, which is themed. They are struck in the US by MKS PAMP, and are available now. Check out the other Disney bullion coins in our Bullion Profile of the range.
