| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, diademed and wearing a necklace, after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, whose initials IRB appear below the truncation. The design features a high-relief bust set against a mirror-polished field, with selective matte finishing creating a striking two-tone contrast. The surrounding legend reads NIUE ISLAND and ELIZABETH II divided by raised dot separators, with the date 2020 at the top and the denomination 1 DOLLAR at the base. |

| Reverse description | Central depiction of the Infant Jesus of Prague (Pražské Jezulátko), rendered in high relief and faithfully reproducing the celebrated wax statue venerated at the Church of Our Lady Victorious in Prague. The figure is shown wearing an ornate imperial crown and richly embroidered liturgical mantle, the right hand raised in blessing and the left hand holding a globus cruciger. A radiant golden halo of gilded sunrays emanates from behind the figure, contrasting with the silver relief of the statue. The composition is framed by an arched architectural surround adorned with baroque acanthus scrollwork at the base, set against a mirror-polished black field. The bilingual legend JESULUS PRAGENSIS appears to the left and PRAŽSKÉ JEZULÁTKO to the right. |
