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.
This coin features Montgomery Scott from Star Trek.
The Mint says about it:
Revered as a highly-skilled Chief Engineer that saved the U.S.S. Enterprise from many a dire situation, Montgomery “Scotty” Scott is the new Chibi Coin in our Star Trek series. The coin is made from 1oz silver and shows “Scotty” in his Starfleet uniform.
Despite the shape and colour, this is still a legal tender coin featuring the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse side. The Chibi Coin is protected by a custom coin capsule and placed inside Star Trek-themed packaging. Display your precious collectible in its box using the window provided or take it out to admire the shine on the obverse of this pure silver coin. With a limited mintage of just 2,000 coins, each coin is supplied with its own unique number - which can be found on the box. A Certificate of Authenticity printed on the box confirms it as a legal tender. |
