    Description

    This listing for one set of Niue 2016 Disney Pixar 5 x 1 oz Finding Dory Proof Coins. Rare!
    New Zealand Mint is pleased to release this fabulous Finding Dory Coin Set featuring the Disney•Pixar movie's key characters: Hank, Destiny, Bailey, Marlin, Nemo and, of course, Dory herself. Each of the 5 x 1oz silver coins combines colour against a relief engraved background.
    In this Disney•Pixar movie forgetful blue tang, Dory, embarks with her friends Nemo and Marlin on a search for answers about her past. What can she remember? Who are her parents? And where did she learn to speak Whale?
    All the coins come individually packaged in a perspex coin case, which fit neatly inside the velvet lined, themed outer box. The uniquely numbered, and themed, Certificate of Authenticity sits within the packaging.
    Coin Story
    Dory
    Dory is a bright blue tang with a sunny personality. She suffers from short-term memory loss, which normally doesn’t upset her upbeat attitude – until she realizes she’s forgotten something big: her family. She’s found a new family in Marlin and Nemo, but she’s haunted by the belief that someone out there is looking for her. Dory may have trouble recalling exactly what – or who – she’s searching for, but she won’t give up until she uncovers her past and discovers something else along the way: self-acceptance.
    This delightful coin shows a smiling Dory in full colour, against a coral reef backdrop
    Hank
    Hank is an octopus. Actually, he’s a “septopus”: he lost a tentacle – along with his sense of humor – somewhere along the way. But Hank is just as competent as his eight-armed peers. An accomplished escape artist with camouflaging capabilities to boot, Hank is the first to greet Dory when she finds herself in the Marine Life Institute. But make no mistake: he’s not looking for a friend. Hank is after one thing – a ticket on a transport truck to a cozy Cleveland facility where he’ll be able to enjoy a peaceful life of solitude.
    This colourful coin shows an engaging image of Hank, with his many moving tentacles, residing on the coral reef.
    Bailey
    Bailey is the Marine Life Institute’s resident beluga whale who is convinced his biological sonar skills are on the fritz. The good news – or bad news, depending on who you ask – is that doctors of the MLI can’t seem to find anything wrong with him. Bailey’s flair for the dramatic never ceases to push his neighbor’s buttons: whale shark Destiny can’t seem to get through to him, no matter how hard she tries. Maybe he’ll listen to new friend Dory, who seems to be full of crazy ideas.
    This delightful coin design shows Bailey in the ocean, surrounded by vibrantly coloured coral and seaweed, attempting to tap into his echolocation skills.
    Destiny
    Destiny may be a clumsy swimmer, but she has a big heart. She has a big everything, actually – whale sharks are the biggest fish in the sea. Destiny resides in the Marine Life Institute, where one day an oddly familiar blue tang named Dory falls into her pool. Destiny is admittedly embarrassed by her obvious lack of grace, a product of poor eyesight, but Dory thinks she swims beautifully. And Dory is delighted to learn that her supersized friend speaks whale, too.
    This coin design impresses on us the size of the whale shark, as the image of Destiny swimming in the water almost fills the entire space!
    Marlin & Nemo
    Marlin knows how it feels to lose family, and it was Dory who helped him find Nemo not so long ago. He realizes he has no choice but to pack up his nervous energy and skepticism and embark on yet another adventure, this time to help his friend.
    Nemo is back to being a normal kid: his harrowing adventure abroad doesn’t seem to have sapped his spirit. In fact, when Dory remembers pieces of her past and longs to take off on an ambitious ocean trek to find her family, Nemo is the first to offer his help.
    This stunning coin portrays Nemo and Marlin swimming together amongst the coral reef.
