The most famous Mickey Mouse cartoon of all time is, undoubtedly, Steamboat Willie. The first Disney cartoon with synchronized sound, the film introduced the greater world to Walt Disney’s lovable mouse and his girlfriend Minnie. A new collection of coins is now available online at Silver.com, including the 2016 5 oz Proof Gold French Mickey Mouse Through the Ages Coin.

Coin Highlights:

  • Ships to you in a box with a Certificate of Authenticity.
  • From Mickey Through the Ages release.
  • Mintage limited to 99 coins only!
  • Consists of Five Troy ounces of .999 fine gold.
  • Issued a face value of €500 (Euros) by the French government.
  • Reverse features the common Mickey Mouse portrait in the series.
  • Obverse depicts Mickey Mouse from Plane Crazy.

Mickey Mouse was Walt Disney’s first major icon, but his original drawings and films were blocked by Disney himself. After a test screening of the animated short Plane Crazy, Disney held off distribution because he wanted to be able to produce the first sound-synchronized animated short.

In 1928, Mickey would make his first big debut in the animated short Steamboat Willie. This iconic short film remains a paramount moment in the history of Walt Disney, establishing an empire that would eventually generate billions of dollars around the globe each year.

In this 2016 5 oz Proof Gold French Mickey Mouse Through the Ages Coin you’ll find imagery reflective of Mickey Mouse from Plane Crazy. Originally created and screen tested in 1928, the film wasn’t distributed until 1929 because the original animated short was a silent film depicting Mickey as he tried to mimic Charles Lindbergh’s transatlantic flight.

On the obverse of the Proof Gold French Mickey Mouse Through the Ages coin is the image of a quizzical Mickey Mouse, as first seen in Plane Crazy. The film didn’t test well originally because it was a silent film, but when it was re-released in 1929 in sound it took off.

The reverse of all 2016 5 oz Proof Gold French Mickey Mouse Through the Ages coins includes the same design featured on all five coins in the collection. The iconic right-profile portrait of Mickey Mouse is captured in brilliant gold relief, with engravings of the face value, year of issue, and Mickey’s name.

All 2016 Proof French Mickey Through the Ages Coins are a product of the Monnaie de Paris, the official sovereign mint of the French government. Previously tasked with the production of Francs, today the mint strikes Euros for the French economy in the European Union.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
