The Christmas season in the Christian liturgical calendar begins on December 25th, Christmas Day, and ends with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord on January 12, 2025. This feast typically takes place on the Sunday after the Solemnity of the Epiphany, which was yesterday, Sunday January 6th. The Baptism of the Lord commemorates Jesus' baptism in the Jordan River by John the Baptist and marks the conclusion of the liturgical season of Christmas, transitioning into the period of Ordinary Time.
With the Christmas season extending to the Feast of the Baptism of Our Lord, there are still a few days left to celebrate and share my Christmas-themed silver treasures!
I got this silver during the first week of December, along with four other pieces of silver. With everything happening in my personal life, I completely forgot about this unopened package!
2021 Niue Silver $2 Disney Donald Duck Christmas
Donald Duck is one of Disney's most iconic and beloved characters. He is known for his distinctive voice, sailor outfit, and famously short temper. Created by Walt Disney and animator Dick Lundy, Donald first appeared in the cartoon "The Wise Little Hen" in 1934. Over the years, he has become a central figure in numerous animated series, movies, and comic books.
Donald's voice is instantly recognizable and adds a unique charm to his character. Donald typically wears a sailor suit with a bow tie and a hat, often without pants, which has become his signature look. He is known for his fiery temper and his determination, which sometimes leads to comical misadventures. Despite his occasional tantrums, he is also portrayed as lovable and well-meaning.

Donald is part of a large duck family, including his beloved nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and his rich, adventurous uncle, Scrooge McDuck, Grandma Duck, and Gyro Gearloose. He also has a loyal girlfriend, Daisy Duck.
For those who may not know, Gyro Gearloose is a brilliant inventor and scientist in Duckburg. He often appears in Disney comics and animated series, like DuckTales. Gyro wears a yellow hat and is known for his eccentric and sometimes comedic inventions.
One of the things that makes Donald Duck truly adorable is his endearing vulnerability and determination. Despite his short temper and the hilarious misadventures he often finds himself in, Donald always gives his best effort. Whether he's trying to play a musical instrument, deal with mischievous nephews, or prove himself in some new endeavor, his never-give-up attitude is both heartwarming and relatable. His frequent blunders and honest emotions add a level of charm that's hard not to love.
Additionally, his moments of tenderness, like showing affection for his beloved Daisy or caring for Huey, Dewey, and Louie... highlight a softer side that makes him a relatable and lovable character.
