The Mint says about this coin:
People with different zodiac signs are supposed to have special aspects of personality. Gemini belong to the most sociable and smart people in the horoscope. In 2011, Niue issued a coin dedicated to this sign, and it can serve as a great present for a person born in the end of May or in June. The coin represents a series issued to celebrate the anniversary of a famous Czech painter, A.Mucha who became popular for his fascinating paintings of women. The obverse side in the A.Mucha's Zodiac series has a rather interesting composition. Minted in the center is the traditional effigy of Queen Elizabet II. To make it even more attractive, the designers surrounded the queen's profile by two circles: the first one has legends (year of issue, regent's name, territory of legal tender, face value), the other one depicts the zodiac painted by A.Mucha in 1896. There was a total of 10.000 Gemini coins issued, and each of them has the blinding shine of .925 silver. The delicacy of silverwork is specially distinctive on the reverse side. The charming image of a redhead woman has great ornaments in the background. The reverse side has only one inscription, and it is styled so that at first sight you won't even distinct the only word reading the name of the coin.
