Gold Tenth-Ounce 2023 Equilibrium, Coin from Niue
CoinGold Tenth-Ounce 2023 Equilibrium

Niue, a sovereign state in free association with New Zealand, uses two official legal tender currencies. The New Zealand Dollar is the circulation currency for daily transactions, while the government also authorises legal tender coins in the Niue Dollar currency for collector's purposes.

A number of mints issue a large variety of commemorative and collector coins under the authority of Niue. These coins are dedicated to historical or general popular culture themes not related to Niue itself. Many of them are in standard bullion sizes - such as a tenth ounce of gold (abbreviated as 1/10 oz Au, where "Au" comes from the Latin word for gold, Aurum).

This is the sixth design in the Equilibrium series of bullion coins by the Pressburg Mint, and the first one issued for Niue (earlier issues were for Tokelau). The coins in the series have a new design every year and are about balance - equilibrium - between technology and humanity.

The Mint says about it:
The yin-yang is an especially important and popular representation of harmony, sprouting from the rich Asian tradition in philosophy. Equilibrium: a state in which opposing forces or influences are balanced.

Obverse
Niue / Gold Tenth-Ounce 2023 Equilibrium - obverse photo

The obverse of the coin features the (unofficial) "Public Seal of Niue". It has what looks like a plant arrangement at centre, within a double ornamental circle, itself surrounded by a circle of sea shells. This is crowned with St Edward's Crown (a symbol of the United Kingdom, the monarch of which is ultimately the Head of State of Niue).

Around above between the two, the inscription PUBLIC SEAL OF NIUE. Below that, a ribbon carries the motto ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI on two lines, below which two crossed katoua (Niue fighting clubs).

Around above, the name of the country and the date of issue: NIUE 2023. Around below, the face value 10 DOLLARS.
