| Obverse description | The fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the crowned and draped bust of the Queen facing right, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The engraver's initials IRB appear below the truncation, along with the Mint of Poland mintmark. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left rim and NIUE ISLAND along the upper right, with the denomination 1 DOLLAR and date 2014 inscribed along the lower rim. The fineness mark Ag 999 is incused to the lower left of the portrait, within a dotted inner border encircling the entire design. |

| Reverse description | A full-colour photographic-style depiction of an adult giant panda walking toward the viewer occupies the upper centre of the field, rendered with striking naturalistic detail in black and white colourisation. A small panda cub, similarly colourised, sits to the lower right in a submissive posture. The background features intricately engraved bamboo leaves in polished and frosted relief, providing contrast to the coloured subjects. In the lower portion of the field, a shield-shaped cartouche displays an engraved world map with a blue Swarovski crystal set at the centre, indicating the species' native habitat. The curved legend ENDANGERED ANIMAL SPECIES arcs along the upper left rim and GIANT PANDA along the right, both incused in the silver field. |
