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, or are based on the troy ounce - for example, three ounces of silver (abbreviated as 3 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum). This coin is the first issue in the “Warriors of Ancient China” series, and is dedicated to one of the most powerful warriors of ancient China, Lu Bu. This general lived in the times of the Eastern Han dynasty, 2nd century AD. He is remembered by the folk culture as an unbeatable fighter. As he was quite skilled in archery and horse-riding, Lu Bu earned his nickname "The Flying General". The fight scene featuring Lu Bu and his rivals is portrayed with exceptional accuracy on a relief surface of the 3 oz silver coin. This composition makes allusion to traditional Chinese paintings, especially with a highlighted background created with a combination of colour printing and gold plating. | ||||||
