| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, rendered in high relief against a frosted inner field. Surrounding the portrait, the deeply struck field depicts three historic aircraft associated with aviation pioneers, including a large twin-engine monoplane in the lower foreground bearing the registration NR16020 — Earhart's Lockheed Electra 10E — along with a biplane and a dirigible airship rendered with fine engraved detail. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left, with the date 2017 at the lower left and the denomination and issuer legend 1 DOLLAR NIUE ISLAND along the right. The fineness inscription 1oz Ag999 appears in the lower centre field. |

| Reverse description | Detailed portrait bust of Amelia Earhart in three-quarter view, wearing a leather aviator's helmet and goggles, positioned in the lower centre of the field as though seated in a cockpit. Behind and above her, a large twin-engine Lockheed Electra monoplane is depicted in dynamic perspective, its registration NR16020 visible on the fuselage. The field is divided between a mirror-polished proof background and frosted sculptural relief. The legend AMELIA EARHART arcs prominently along the upper left border in bold serif capitals. A small Czech Mint mintmark appears in the mid-field. |
