| Beschrijving keerzijde | The rectangular reverse bears a richly detailed colour-printed reproduction of an engraving by Gustave Doré illustrating Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, specifically a scene from the Inferno. A procession of robed and cloaked figures advances across a darkened, textured landscape, rendered with dramatic chiaroscuro typical of Doré's style. The figures appear solemn and draped in heavy garments, moving in a columnar formation through a gloomy underworld setting. The composition fills the entire rectangular flan, emphasising the illustrative nature of this collector issue. No additional legends appear on the reverse field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece is the opening entry in a 24-coin series commissioned by Niue and produced by the New Zealand Mint commemorating Dante Alighieri's Divina Commedia, written between approximately 1308 and 1320. Niue — a self-governing island nation in free association with New Zealand — has built a substantial portion of its numismatic revenue on exactly these kinds of licensed themed series, a fiscal model that has drawn both collectors and criticism since the 1990s.
The irregular dimensions reflect a shaped planchet, a production choice that became increasingly common among Pacific island issuers after the early 2000s as mint technology made non-circular flans commercially viable at scale.
