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: Made from 1oz pure silver, the design also features a coloured engraving of the phrase "Merry Force Be With You" in colour. For extra charm, engraved snowflakes on a smooth mirror background have been added - very reminiscent of winter and the icy planet! The obverse bears the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Queen Elizabeth II to confirm it as legal tender. The outer box is Star Wars holiday-themed. Inside, there is an illustration of a Rebel Scout on a Tauntaun surrounded by a Christmas wreath with the phrase "Merry Hothmas". The Certificate of Authenticity is printed underneath, alongside the coin’s unique serial number in the limited mintage of just 2,022 - to reflect the year of the issue. The coin itself is placed in a bauble-shaped case. | ||||||
