Silver Ounce 2021 Harry Potter - Lord Voldemort, Coin from Niue - detailed information

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 famous movie characters.

This coin is part of a New Zealand Mint series dedicated to characters from famous movies and features Lord Voldemort from the Harry Potter series.

The Mint says about it:
"Arch enemy of Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort, features on this delicately engraved 1oz silver coin. It shows a menacing image of the Dark Lord casting a vicious spell in anger.

The effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the opposite side confirms the coin as legal tender. The coin is housed in a quality wooden coin case, ideal for display, which is placed inside a Harry Potter™-themed box showing the original coin image in colour."
