| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the George IV State Diadem, a drop earring, and a necklace, as modeled by engraver Raphael David Maklouf; his initials RDM appear below the truncation. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left periphery and NIUE · ONE DOLLAR along the upper and right periphery, with the date 2011 at the base. The design is surrounded by a continuous beaded border on a mirror-polished field. |

| Additional information |
Niue has long licensed its sovereign coinage authority to the New Zealand-based Talisman Mint and similar operators, producing collectibles with no meaningful circulation intent. This 2011 Star Wars character issue appeared alongside several others in the same series, timed loosely to coincide with renewed franchise merchandising ahead of the 3D re-releases announced that year. Silver-plated copper-nickel rather than solid silver — a cost decision that keeps these firmly in the novelty category despite the legal tender face value.
