Disney Dollars were first issued in 1987 from the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida and Disneyland California. Disney Dollars were legal tender issued by the Walt Disney Company, which were accepted in Walt Disney World, Disneyland California, Disney Stores, Disney Cruise ships and in parts of Castaway Cay. They are a currency that can be used at Disney resorts and shops still today. 

Launched as an official currency with a U.S. dollar equivalent, they were discontinued in 2016 and are no longer available for purchase. They were made in denominations of $1, $5, $10 and $50 and remain quite collectible. Featured over the years were various Disney characters, such as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald, Simba and Goofy. Since Disney Dollars could be used across Disney property, they actually had numerous anti-counterfeiting measures built-in to the design. They were printed on 100% cotton paper and Scrooge McDuck was the signing treasurer.
