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 have a Zodiac-inspired theme. This coin is part of a series of oval-shaped Signs of Zodiac coins by the Czech Mint, and features Aquarius. The Mint says about it: The coin of a non-traditional oval shape bears a coloured image of Aquarius in the form of an ancient man with an amphora on the reverse side. Photographs or computer graphics were not used as a template for colouring - the author of the coin, Asamat Baltaev, DiS., created an original watercolour painting for it. | ||||||
