Obverse
The obverse design of 2016 Proof Niue Mickey Mouse Plane Crazy 1 oz Gold Coins includes Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is featured in right-profile relief with the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. This is believed to be the Queens favorite tiara and was gifted to her grandmother, Mary of Teck, upon her marriage to the Queens grandfather.
Reverse
On the reverse of 2016 Proof Niue Mickey Mouse Plane Crazy 1 oz Gold Coins is Mickey Mouse. He is featured here inside the fuselage of a small plane from the animated film Plane Crazy, an animated short that was first test screened in May 1928.
History
Plane Crazy was tested in a small screening in May 1928 as a silent film that represented the first appearance of Mickey Mouse. Mickey first appeared in an animated short with synchronized sound later in 1928 in Steamboat Willie, but the initial test screening of Plane Crazy was actually his first appearance. However, Plane Crazy was not initially picked up by distributors following that test screening.
