Printed in the early to mid - 1930's

Cone Dollars

Originally printed in the 1930s, Mickey Mouse "Cone dollars" are now highly valuable and sought-after collectibles due to their scarcity and age. Unlike the more common Disney Dollars, which were discontinued in 2016, these original coupons were printed on thin paper and could be redeemed for Disney merchandise or ice cream cones. A Cone dollar's value is influenced by its condition, denomination (1, 5, or 10 cents), and color, with rarer combinations fetching higher prices. The note's condition is a critical factor, with uncirculated examples being the most valuable, and can be professionally graded by services like PCGS and PMG. Different variations, such as those with or without a distributor's name, also exist, with some versions being more desirable than others. Our current collectability rating for these items is moderate (4 out of 5 stars). These even though are not as well known to the general public as Disney Dollars are significantly rarer and one of the first forms of Disney's advertising.

JNP Disney's Take

Cone Dollars

Over four separate releases, these notes were printed in four distinct colors, resulting in 12 variations. This nearly 100-year-old collection is one of the earliest existing examples of Disney advertising and extremely rare.

JNP Disney's Take

Inspired by the legacy of the original Disney Dollar, Shanghai Disneyland debuted its own set of special test notes, and the collector market is taking notice. Released to celebrate the park's opening and anniversaries, these stunning commemorative notes feature exclusive artwork that celebrates both iconic Disney characters and local Chinese heritage. What began as a modern park souvenir has quickly transformed into a prized collectible for enthusiasts worldwide. Our current collectability rating for these items is moderate (3 out of 5 stars). However, we hold a positive long-term outlook, particularly for the initial test notes and Travel in Shanghai series, due to their increasing demand and international exposure.

Shanghai Disneyland

Prior to the park officially opening in China, test notes were created to celebrate Disney's 90th anniversary.  These notes most closely resembled the traditional Disney Dollars. Over the next few years additional notes were produced in gold and silver celebrating Shanghai Disneyland opening.

Disney Dollars

JNP Disney's Take

Disney Dollars, which were issued from 1987 to 2016, are now considered a collectible item. They were initially introduced as a form of currency for use within Disney theme parks and stores. However, their value as collector's items has steadily risen, often exceeding their face value, especially for rare or uncirculated notes. Our current collectability rating for these items is moderate (3 to 3.5 out of 5 stars). This rating is mostly based on an average as the fact that even though as a whole they are highly desirable, notes rarity and collectability vary greatly based on the fact that these were released for nearly 3 decades. Certain notes would hold a 5-star ranking where more common notes are closer to face value.

Disney Dollars

The traditional version of Disney Dollars were released from 1987 to 2014. They had 171 distinctive notes with one special release and a singular framed version. These were eventually replaced with plastic rechargable gift cards.

JNP Disney's Take

The 1971 Walt Disney World Recreation Coupon, issued on the park's opening day, October 1, 1971, is a significant collectible. These rare, commemorative notes were larger than US currency and featured the printed signature of Roy O. Disney. The 1972 version is considered even more limited in distribution, adding to its importance for collectors. High-grade examples of these coupons can command substantial value. Our current collectability rating for these items is moderate (3.5 out of 5 stars). The nostalgia around these being released during opening day make them popular with collectors.

Recreation Coupons

Recreation coupons from Walt Disney World were collectible vintage coupons issued in 1971 and in 1972 that could be used for recreational activities at the park instead of cash.

JNP Disney's Take

For collectors, Tokyo Disney yen gift cards offer far more than their face value. While new cards can be picked up during a park visit, the real treasures are the discontinued and unique designs found on the collectors' market. This niche has flourished thanks to "graded" notes, which are professionally assessed for their condition. A surge in the resale market, combined with an influx of high-graded items, has created a trend that has captivated many collectors in the United States seeking international Disneyland keepsakes. Our collectability rating for these items is (2.5 out of 5 stars). This is primarily driven by the fact that certain versions are still produced and the longevity around these notes is shorter compared to other Disney banknotes. The international appeal in the US markets is what's currently driving these resale markets.

JNP Disney's Take

Vintage enthusiasts and Disney collectors often seek out Elah Scrooge Dollar$, a promotional item from a 1969–1972 collaboration between Italian chewing gum maker Elah and Disney. These unique bank note-style inserts were included with every piece of gum and featured characters from the Donald Duck universe. Although not a rare find, they remain a highly collectible piece of nostalgia. Their value depends on the note's condition, series, and printed denomination, and while a complete set is more valuable, no individual note commands a significant price. For collectors, these "Paperone dollars" represent a charming and iconic piece of vintage pop culture. Our collectability rating for these items is (3.2 out of 5 stars). The rarer version of these items are are identified with an "S" signs or red notes commanding significant resale prices. However, rarity does not always equal a high price, and these notes typically sell for less than professionally graded notes. They are nonetheless very difficult to find in excellent condition, hence why full command such a high resale value.

JNP Disney's Take

Topolino Fantastiliardi Dollars are fantasy banknotes created in Italy in 1997, depicting members of the Donald Duck family from the imaginary Banca di Paperopoli (Bank of Duckburg). They are not official Disney Dollars as in many cases misidentified as them by casual collectors. These notes hold decent value for specialized Disney collectors, particularly those interested in international Disney comics and memorabilia. While rarer than many official Disney Dollars, there is a dedicated collector's market for them, with their value depending on condition and buyer interest. Our collectability rating for these items is (2.8 out of 5 stars). Collected by children in Italy in 1997 these items can still be found occasionally in decent condition but due to being in flexible storage items having high gradable versions notes are very limited. This has created a rise in the market for collecting the 6 piece set.

JNP Disney's Take

Italian IBI Bank Walt Disney Mini-Checks from 1977 are rare in good condition primarily because they were a temporary solution to a coin shortage between 1975 and 1978 and were made with low-quality paper. Many mini-checks were likely destroyed due to their fragile nature and low perceived value as temporary currency, leading to fewer well-preserved examples surviving today. Our collectability rating for these items is (3.8 out of 5 stars). These are not gradable through PMG due to the lack of security features but they are one of the more difficulty items to find as they were never thought of as a collectible. Similar to vintage baseball cards or old coins this notes value is relative to its limited availability especially in uncirculated condition.

JNP Disney's Take

Accornero Paperdollari Dollars are collectible and relatively rare, as they were promotional items distributed with Italian biscuits in 1988 featuring Disney characters like Scrooge McDuck and Donald Duck, not official currency. Their value depends heavily on their condition, with notes in uncirculated, high-quality condition being more valuable than those showing wear from handling. While complete sets are scarce and can command higher prices, individual notes, depending on the denomination, can be found for more moderate prices. Our collectability rating for these items is (3.4 out of 5 stars). Primarily based on the total number of notes not being publicly available. Since they were released for such a limited time in 1988 in Italy. The nature of the promotion makes them extremely uncommon today.

JNP Disney's Take

Zero Euro Disney notes are collectible souvenirs, not legal tender, though they hold no monetary value, Zero Euro Disney notes have become sought-after collector's items. Their worth is driven by their appeal to fans and collectors, with limited print runs, character popularity, and pristine condition being key factors in determining secondary market prices. Editions with particularly low production numbers are typically the most valuable. Our collectability rating for these items is (4.2 out of 5 stars). Although these are relative new issue notes, they are by far one of our most popular items that are difficult to keep in stock. This rating is based on the incredible demand we get for these items for graded and ungraded requests alike.
