Who better to grace a pure silver coin than Scrooge McDuck himself? 

Issued by the New Zealand Mint, this officially licensed release from the 2015 Disney Classic Collection series features a finely engraved illustration of Scrooge set against a mirror-like proof background. Struck in 1 oz of fine silver, it’s a brilliant tribute to Disney's favorite billionaire duck.

Created in 1947 by Carl Barks for the comic Christmas on Bear Mountain, Scrooge McDuck quickly grew from a single-issue character into a global pop-culture icon. Known for his insatiable love of money, adventurous spirit, quick wit, and a surprisingly warm heart, Donald Duck’s rich uncle captured the imagination of fans worldwide. From starring in his own comic line starting in 1953 to iconic screen roles in Scrooge McDuck and Money (1967), Mickey’s Christmas Carol (1983), and the smash-hit animated series DuckTales (1987–1992), Scrooge remains a timeless figure.
