The Mint says about this coin:
Clowns have a long history as most ancient clowns have been found in the Fifth Dynasty of Egypt, around 2400 BC. Over the years the term clown has evolved to mean different things such as court jesters as well as circus performers. The first modern-day circus employed clowns to entertain audiences. Now, clowns are featured on silver bullion with the 2023 2 oz Colorized Niue Silver Pastel Circus Flying Coin, available at JM Bullion. Coin Highlights:

While the origin is unknown, it’s possible it comes from the Scandinavian word “cognate” meaning clumsy. The word evolved as it was the name of fool characters in some of Shakespeare’s earlier plays. This further evolved into the circus clown which is derived from Philip Astley’s riding school. Astley added a clown to his shows with the goal of amusing spectators.
