| Obverse description | Rectangular foil-finish field with intricate guilloche patterning throughout, evoking the aesthetic of a banknote. The right-facing diademed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley occupies a central raised octagonal panel with decorative scrollwork surround. The legend ELIZABETH II appears across the upper field, with NIUE along the lower margin. Denomination ONE DOLLAR is inscribed at left and right, and the date 2019 appears at lower left. A cartouche in the upper right corner displays the weight and fineness designation 5g Ag.999. |

| Additional information |
Niue's treaty arrangement with New Zealand allows it to issue legal tender coinage despite having no independent monetary system of its own — a quirk exploited extensively since the 1990s by the New Zealand Mint on Niue's behalf, producing collector issues for the international bullion and numismatic market rather than domestic circulation.
