In 1987, Walt Disney marked the 50th anniversary of the release of their monumental animated classic, "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." In that same year, Rarities Mint produced this set of 11 FIVE-TROY-OUNCE, 999 Fine Silver medallions portraying each of the main characters (Snow White, Seven Dwarfs, the Prince, the Witch, and the Hunter and Queen. The eleven silver rounds are each encapsulated and show minimal, if any, toning or tarnish. They are quite securely set into a hinged display book lined with a beige, velvet-like material. six on the left side and five on the right side. The sixth space on the right side has a similar capsule which contains a colored image of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. A fold-over chamois-like cloth covers the right side to prevent the capsules on opposite pages from rubbing against each other. The entire book is covered in a red velvet-like material with the title gold-foil-embossed on the front. Two working clasps on the right side keep the book closed. The package is overall in good condition with minimal wear on the exterior and very little wear inside. Rarities Mint claimed the series would be limited to an edition of 5,000 pieces for each design, but figures published online by the Disney Collectors Club indicate much smaller mintages:
