| 正面铭文 | AMBER ROUTE ELIZABETH II 2009 1 DOLLAR NIUE ISLAND |
| 背面描述 | The reverse presents a multi-layered commemorative composition evoking the historical city of Elbląg and the ancient Amber Route. To the left, a detailed relief of a Gothic church with a tower and adjacent buildings represents the cityscape of Elbląg. At centre, within a wreath of laurel or grain, two facing busts rendered in the manner of ancient Roman coinage are depicted, referencing the trade and cultural connections of the Amber Route. To the right, a large ancient ceramic vessel or amphora is shown in relief. A genuine inlaid amber stone, deep reddish-brown in colour, is set into the lower centre of the coin. The arched bilingual legend ELBLĄG SZLAK BURSZTYNOWY (Elbląg Amber Route) runs along the upper periphery. |

Niue's authority to issue legal tender collector coins derives from a 1975 arrangement with New Zealand, which remains responsible for the island's defense and foreign affairs. The territory has leveraged that issuing right aggressively since the 1990s, contracting with the New Zealand Mint and other facilities to produce themed series for the international collector market — of which this Amber Route piece is one.
Elbląg, a Hanseatic city in what is now northern Poland, was a principal node in the medieval amber trade moving Baltic raw material southward toward Mediterranean markets. The city changed hands repeatedly — Teutonic Knights, Poland, Prussia, Sweden — before being almost entirely destroyed in 1945.
