{{/presale}}Mickey Mouse made his first appearance in the classic 1928 animated short “Steamboat Willie.” This black-and-white film introduced the world to Mickey, a cheeky and adventurous mouse who would go on to become one of the most beloved characters in animation history. In “Steamboat Willie,” Mickey captains a steamboat and gets up to all sorts of antics, showcasing the fun-loving personality that made him a household name. Right now, 2014 1 oz Proof Niue Mickey Mouse Steamboat Willie Gold Coins in perfect condition are available from BGASC.

Obverse
The obverse of the 2014 Proof Niue Mickey Mouse Steamboat Willie Gold Coin shows a right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This portrait was designed by Ian Rank-Broadley and features Her Majesty wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.
Reverse
On the reverse side of the 2014 1 oz Proof Mickey Mouse Steamboat Willie Gold Coin, youll find Mickey Mouse steering the steamboat from “Steamboat Willie.” In this early version, Mickey is portrayed with a mischievous personality that differs from his more refined modern look. The playful and sometimes mischievous tone of this early short reflects the slapstick style of the era.
History
“Steamboat Willie” was a pioneering film, known not only for introducing Mickey but also for being one of the first cartoons to feature synchronized sound. This innovation helped Disney become a leader in animation, pushing the boundaries of what was possible in the medium and setting the stage for future advancements.
