| Obverse description | The coin is struck in the form of a heart-shaped leaf, its entire surface finely engraved with a detailed network of veins radiating from a central stem, rendered in gold plating. At the centre, the Public Seal of Niue is depicted in raised relief, consisting of an ornate circular cartouche surmounted by a royal crown, enclosing a decorative floral motif. The legend PUBLIC SEAL OF NIUE arcs above the seal, with the motto ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI inscribed below. The inscriptions 2025, 1 Dollar, and Niue Island appear in the lower right field, integrated along the leaf veins in an elegant diagonal arrangement. |

| Additional information |
Niue has operated as a prolific licensing hub for commemorative coinage since the 1990s, contracting its sovereign issuing authority to foreign mints and bullion dealers who then retail the pieces globally. The practical connection between this coin and the island territory of Niue is administrative rather than geographic — no meaningful production or monetary infrastructure exists there.
Tutankhamun's tomb was unsealed by Howard Carter in November 1922, triggering international obsession that has never fully subsided. The ongoing commercial appetite for Egyptology-themed issues keeps this subject among the most repeatedly struck on the commemorative market.
