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 - typically, one ounce of silver (abbreviated as 1 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum).
The Mint says about this coin:
"The Mint of Poland presents a coin which has been made to commemorate the 100th anniversary of one of the most significant shipping conduits in the world and at the same time one of the greatest achievements of humanity in the water construction. The 100th anniversary of the Panama Canal coin is a pure form of innovation - the coin has been decorated with a latent image. Offered in an offbeat presentation case in the form of a compass. Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity."
Decoration: digital printing, a latent image.
Quality: Proof.
