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, bullion 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 made using "smartminting" techniques and have features not generally found in circulation coins - e.g. high relief, full colour printing and/or different forms, including fully three dimensional (3D).
Some coins are marketed in standard bullion sizes, like half ounce silver, one ounce silver etc, and some of those are also denominated as $1, for which see respective lists; this particular coin denominated as One Niue Dollar is not in a standard ounce-based size.
This coin is part of the Forest Babies series and features an European Bison.
The Mint says about it:
"The Mint of Poland is delighted to present the fourth coin from the series which will take you on a journey to a fabulous atmosphere of a virgin forest. The coin is a work of art created by a young Polish artist and was precisely reprinted from a drawing with the help of advanced digital technology. This charming coin is offered in an exceptional packaging maintained in a style characteristic for colourful cardboard books dedicated to the young audience." |
