Silver Five Ounces 2023 Art of the 100th - The Matrix, Coin from Niue - detailed information

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 in standard bullion sizes - including this very large five ounces of silver format (abbreviated as 5 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum).

This coin is part of a series which marks 100 Years of Warner Bros.

The mint says about it:
Our latest Art of the 100th coin captures the essence of Warner Bros. 1999 classic, The Matrix.

Have you ever had a dream that you were so sure was real? What if you couldn't awaken? How would you know the difference between dream and reality? When a beautiful stranger leads computer hacker Neo to a forbidding underworld, he discovers the shocking truth - the life he knows is the elaborate deception of an evil cyber-intelligence. Neo joins legendary and dangerous rebel warrior Morpheus in the battle to destroy the illusion enslaving humanity.

Crafted with precision and artistry, the coin features artwork inspired by the famous sci-fi film using vibrant colour, frosted engraving, and mirror-finish. This dynamic design is offset by a black coloured background, creating a striking contrast. Relief has also been added to give it some depth.

Created in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, each collectible is nestled inside a quality case and anniversary-themed outer box making an impressive display!
