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, based on the troy ounce - such as the half ounce of silver format (abbreviated as 1/2 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum). This coin is part of the Cartoon Characters series by the Mint of Poland which features commemorative coins dedicated to the most recognisable cartoon characters of the world. This release is dedicated to Tom and Jerry. "Is there anyone who doesn’t know Bugs Bunny's catchphrase "What's up Doc?" Perhaps, the most recognisable and famous cartoon character, this smug and cocky grey rabbit has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and has been featured in numerous cartoons, movies, and video games. Nonchalantly chewing on a carrot, Bugs Bunny is always the hero and triumphs over his enemies." | ||||||
