| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a richly colored Art Nouveau-style bust of a young woman in left-facing profile, inspired by Alphonse Mucha's celebrated zodiac series. Her voluminous hair is elaborately adorned with ivy leaves rendered in polychrome color, and a rose blossom appears at the lower right amid decorative foliage. At the lower center, a small raised medallion depicts the sea-goat, the symbolic creature of Capricorn, accompanied by the astrological glyph for the sign. The legend CAPRICORN is inscribed in raised relief along the right field against a background of interlocking Gothic trefoil ornamental motifs. The composition combines selective color application with mirror-like proof fields to produce a striking contrast between the colored portrait and the polished silver decorative elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niue has operated a prolific coin program since the late 1980s, licensing its sovereignty to mint commemorative issues that have no practical circulation life — struck for the collector market and legal tender in name only. This Capricorn piece is one of twelve in a zodiac series, a format that proved commercially reliable enough to repeat across multiple years and issuers.
KM#504 places it firmly within a period when the Royal Mint and private minting houses were competing aggressively for Pacific island licensing agreements.
