Silver Ounce 2021 Tarot Cards - The Magician, 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 characters and themes from popular culture.

The Mint says about this coin:
"The Tarot Cards Coin Collection continues with card number One, The Magician. This is the number of new beginnings and opportunities. Struck in 1oz pure silver the coin shows a coloured and engraved representation of The Magician on a rectangular coin - to mirror the shape of a Tarot card.

The Magician stands with one arm stretched upwards towards the Universe, and the other pointing down to the earth. His positioning represents his connection between the spiritual and material realms.

The custom-made book-style packaging provides further details of the meaning behind the card and the Certificate of Authenticity. A holographic sticker on the packaging confirms the serial number of the coin."
