Silver Thirty-five Grams 2018 Star Wars - A New Hope, 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 coins under the authority of Niue. Most of these are in standard shapes and sizes, but some - like these silver foils - use different formats. The 35 gram silver foils are very thin, so that they can be large in surface, and are issued with poster-like coloured reverses. The are "Non-Circulating Legal Tender" (NCLT) and are targeted at collectors who appreciate them for their artistic or sentimental value.

This premium silver foil features a replica image of the original Star Wars movie poster. This classic thundered onto the big screen on May 25, 1977. Licensed by Disney, this unique precious metal foil incorporates both colour and engraving to bring the poster to life.

This 35g fine silver collectible is presented in a clever acrylic holder, designed to frame the foil and allow for easy display. It is packaged inside a complementary themed carrier, with the Product Specifications printed on the outside.
