Aanvullende informatie

The Church of St. Anne and Bernardine Complex in Vilnius is a Gothic and late-Gothic brick ensemble begun in the late 15th century, surviving intact largely because Napoleon, on his 1812 march toward Moscow, reportedly declared St. Anne's so beautiful he wished he could carry it back to Paris on the palm of his hand. Whether apocryphal or not, the French occupation left both structures standing while much of Vilnius was stripped for military use.

Niue has issued silver dollars of this format under licensing arrangements since the 1990s, functioning as a bullion-adjacent collector vehicle with no meaningful domestic circulation.
