The Steamboat Willie 1oz Silver Round is a collectible bullion piece marked ONE OUNCE 999 AG. Its two designs are inspired by Steamboat Willie, the 1928 animated short featuring Mickey Mouse.
The obverse shows Mickey Mouse at the ship’s wheel, with a lifebuoy and deck details in the background. The reverse depicts the paddle steamer in profile, with smoke rising from its funnel. The STEAMBOAT WILLIE title sits above the scene, with 1928 and the weight and purity markings below.

Why Buy a Steamboat Willie Silver Round?
This round pairs the familiar one-ounce silver format with a design drawn from early animation. The two sides tell different parts of the same story, with Mickey at the wheel on one side and the full steamboat on the other. The clear capsule lets you view both sides while protecting the round from direct handling.
