The immense popularity of Disney animation was built from the studio’s earliest days around iconic comedic characters. One of the biggest of these animated celebrities started out in 1932 with the name Dippy Dawg, but was soon renamed Goofy. His signature attributes were being fun-loving, loyal, and indeed goofy, and he formed part of a pioneering comedy trio with Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse in his earliest years. Across a decades-long career, he featured in countless shows and animated shorts, and he’s still going strong as the New Zealand Mint celebrates his legacy with the 2022 1 oz Proof Niue Colorized Silver Disney Goofy 90th Anniversary Coin.
Coin Highlights:
- Ships in a Goofy-themed box encased in black velvet!
- Issued in 2022!
- Limited mintage of just 1,932 coins!
- Contains 1 Troy oz of .999 Pure Silver.
- Face value of $2 (NZD) as legal tender of Niue.

With a limited issue of only 1,932 coins to commemorate the year that began the career of the lovable and colorful Goofy, the New Zealand Mint celebrates one of the studio’s most popular characters and indeed one of the most famous animated figures of all time. Goofy appeared in a series of his own including Goofy and Wilbur and the much-later Goof Troop, co-starred with fellow mascots Donald and Mickey in multiple outings, and even picked up Oscar nominations across the decades. He has always succeeded in finding popularity with new audiences, and this precious collectible coin is sure to be popular with both new and old fans as well as investors and collectors.
