The circular legend around the periphery reads ELIZABETH II to the left and NIUE 2022 to the upper right, with ONE DOLLAR to the right and 1OZ 999 SILVER along the lower arc, all separated by raised dots.

| Reverse description | A dramatic high-relief scene depicting a confrontation between a Komodo dragon and a snarling tiger set within a dense bamboo forest. The tiger, positioned to the left with jaws open and claws raised, faces the Komodo dragon rearing up on the right, its scaly body rendered with fine textural detail. Bamboo stalks, tropical foliage, and scattered ground debris fill the background field, creating a richly layered naturalistic composition. The design occupies the full flan with no legend or inscription, relying entirely on the sculptural relief to convey the tension of the encounter. The coin has no reverse lettering. |
