| Reverse description | Elaborately detailed reverse depicting a symmetrical composition divided vertically, featuring the zodiac sign for Pisces as a stylised symbol on a raised disc to the upper right, accompanied by intricate filigree and scrollwork filling the field. A centrally inlaid violet Swarovski crystal representing February's birthstone (amethyst) is set at the centre of the design. Snowflake motifs and star elements are scattered across the lower field, evoking the winter month. The inscription 'FEBRUARY' is engraved in large letters along the lower rim. |

| Additional information |
Niue has functioned since 1972 as a self-governing territory in free association with New Zealand, and its arrangement with the New Zealand Mint has made it one of the Pacific's most prolific issuers of commemorative bullion pieces — most of which never circulate. This particular issue incorporates an embedded Swarovski crystal, a licensing arrangement the Austrian company has pursued aggressively with world mints since the early 2000s to expand beyond jewelry into collectible coinage.
