| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a leaping tiger rendered in high relief in the form of an ancient Chinese tally artifact, with the body shaped to interlock with a complementary piece. The feline figure is depicted mid-leap with jaws agape, its muscular form entirely covered in elaborate archaic Chinese scroll and cloud ornamentation executed in fine relief. Selective gold gilding highlights the decorative patterning across the body, limbs, and head, referencing ancient bronze art traditions of the Warring States or Han dynasty periods. The coin's non-circular, tiger-shaped planchet is itself a defining design element, evoking the form of a traditional Chinese military tally token. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "tally stick" format, splitting a single design across two coins that physically interlock or visually complete each other, has no deep historical precedent in Niue's actual monetary or cultural history — it is a modern collector device borrowed from European medieval tally sticks, which were notched wooden sticks split between debtor and creditor as proof of a transaction. Niue's bullion and novelty issues have leaned heavily on this mechanism since the early 2020s as a way to drive set-completion purchasing behavior.
KM#6784 is the first of the two-piece tally pairing.
