The "Mickey Through the Ages" coin collection celebrates the much-loved Disney character Mickey Mouse and his cartoon career through the decades.
Disney's Mickey Mouse stars in Mickey's Christmas Carol, which premiered in England on October 20, 1983.
In this classic short film, Charles Dickens' well-known Christmas story is retold with Mickey Mouse as Bob Cratchit. Scrooge McDuck takes the role of penny-pinching Ebenezer Scrooge who refuses to believe that Christmas is a time for kindness and generosity. But with the help of some wise ghosts, played by Disney favourites Goofy, Jiminy Cricket, Willie the Giant and Pete, Scrooge realises that he must embrace the true spirit of the season.
This 9999 pure gold coin is engraved with a striking starburst and a joy-filled Mickey Mouse in his hat and scarf from Disney's Mickey’s Christmas Carol (1983).
The 0.5gram gold coin is presented on an attractive printed card that incorporates the same portrait of Mickey Mouse for continuity. The Certificate of Authenticity is printed on the card reverse.
