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). Many of these feature various animals. This 1 oz silver antique coin by the New Zealand Mint features a Brontosaurus. The Mint says about it: The reverse shows the Brontosaurus in full colour against a detailed prehistoric landscape which has been finely engraved. The coin is legal tender in Niue and the obverse features the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The coin arrives inside a themed outer box, which also displays an image of this gentle giant amongst a background of rock. Inside there’s a quality coin case where you’ll also find the Certificate of Authenticity, confirming the metal purity and the coin’s unique number in the limited 2,000 mintage. | ||||||
