| Beschrijving keerzijde | Three large color-printed blooms of Iris florentina — the white Florentine iris with pale lavender tints and yellow beards — occupy the foreground in vibrant polychrome. Behind them, a finely engraved panoramic skyline of Florence is depicted in relief against a dark field, prominently featuring Brunelleschi's dome of Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral. The legend Iris Florentina arcs along the upper left portion of the field in a distinctive italic typeface, and the fineness mark Ag 925 appears in the lower right quadrant. |

Niue has functioned since the 1990s as a licensing vehicle for commemorative coinage programs with no domestic circulation intent — the island's roughly 1,600 residents are not the audience. This piece belongs to a botanical series marketed entirely to thematic collectors in Europe and North America, issued under New Zealand currency authority by arrangement.
Iris florentina, the Florentine iris, has been cultivated since at least the 13th century for orris root, the dried rhizome used as a fixative in perfumery. Florence adopted it as a civic emblem centuries ago.
