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.
The Mint says about this coin:
Floating up from the disturbing drains of Maine comes It - the first in the new Chibi Coin Horror Series for Warner Bros. This 1oz pure silver coin has been designed to represent the creepy clown, right down to the trademark red balloon he uses to tempt children into his lair. On the obverse side, you can see the Public Seal of Niue, providing confirmation that this is, in fact, a Niue legal tender coin!
To allow you to easily display this unique collectible, the packaging includes a large window. It also features artwork from the 2017 film to complement the coin inside, which is protected by a specially designed case moulded to the coin’s shape. Each box has a Certificate of Authenticity printed on it, along with confirmation of the coin’s unique serial number in the limited 2,000 mintage. |

The obverse of the coin features the (unofficial) "Public Seal of Niue". It has what looks like a plant arrangement at centre, within a double ornamental circle, itself surrounded by a circle of sea shells. This is crowned with St Edward's Crown (a symbol of the United Kingdom, the monarch of which is ultimately the Head of State of Niue).
Around above between the two, the inscription PUBLIC SEAL OF NIUE. Below that, a ribbon carries the motto ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI on two lines, below which two crossed katoua (Niue fighting clubs).
Around above, the face value TWO DOLLARS. The date of issue 2022 is below the seal.
On four lines below, the copyright information: IT and all related characters and elements © & TM Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. (s22)..
Near the bottom, the precious metal content: 1 oz 999 Fine Silver (one troy ounce of 99.9% silver). |
