Specifications
The story of Cinderella is symbolic of the struggle against unjust oppression. The earliest known version of the Cinderella variant dates from 700 B.C., although the popular Disney variant (complete with pumpkin carriage, glass slippers and fairy Godmother!) dates from a version written in French in 1697 by Charles Perrault. The film version released by Disney in 1950 rescued Disney from the verge of bankruptcy and is now considered one of the greatest animated films of all time. The film received three Academy award nominations.
The obverse has the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, while the reverse features a colourized image of Cinderella as she appeared in the Disney film. She is wearing her ball gown as given by her Fairy Godmother, and her relaxed demeanour tells us that the clock is not about to strike midnight!
A perfect gift for Disney collectors or Princess fans, the limited mintage of 10000 should lend this coin enduring appeal.
This coin comes in a book-case style coin box with the certificate of authenticity printed on it.
