| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a colorized scene depicting Australian soldiers advancing along the Kokoda Track during the 1942 World War II campaign in New Guinea. Three infantrymen are shown in relief, the foremost carrying a rifle at the ready, with dense tropical jungle foliage framing the composition. In the lower left, a signpost-style cartouche bears the inscriptions WWII and AUSTRALIA, below which a color-printed panel displays the ribbon of the Pacific Star medal in blue, red, and light blue stripes. The legend KOKODA TRACK - 1942 arcs along the upper rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niue has functioned for decades as a licensing vehicle for commemorative issues with no organic connection to the island itself. This piece marks the 75th anniversary of the Kokoda Track campaign, the grueling 1942 jungle fighting in Papua New Guinea where Australian forces — many of them poorly equipped militia — halted the Japanese advance toward Port Moresby across the Owen Stanley Range. Silver-plated copper-nickel rather than solid silver keeps it squarely in souvenir territory, a distinction that matters to anyone buying it as a collectible rather than a piece of bullion.
