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 movie characters. Some are also in innovative shapes, such as "Chibi".
Chibi (ちび or チビ) is a Japanese slang word describing something short (a thing, an animal or a person). The term is widely used to describe a specific style of caricature where characters are drawn in an exaggerated way: small and chubby, with stubby limbs and oversized heads. Coins of this type look like cartoon characters and have their corresponding shape; they are also very thick for their size.
To celebrate the Shrek Film franchise, The Coin Company presents the 2021 Gingerbread Man 1oz Silver Shaped Coin.
This coin is struck in a unique shape to replicate a detailed portrayal of The Gingerbread Man (also known as Gingy), a gingerbread cookie that was baked by the Muffin Man, one of Shrek’s friends in the films. Gingy got tired of run, run, running just as fast as he can and has become one tough cookie with something up his sugary sleeve.
The coin is produced under licence by The Coin Company Australia as legal tender under the authority of Niue. |
