Silver Thirty-five Grams 2019 Star Wars - The Phantom Menace, 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.

The epic beginning to the Star Wars prequel series, Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, is celebrated on this distinct premium silver foil, featuring a replica of the film’s poster artwork. Licensed by Disney, this fourth release in the Star Wars Premium Silver Foil collection is brought to life through the combination of both colour and engraving.

Made from 35g fine silver, this precious metal keepsake is presented in an innovative acrylic holder which frames the foil, allowing for easy display. A Certificate of Authenticity is printed on the outside of the complimentary themed carrier.
