| Obverse lettering | NIUE ISLAND 1 DOLLAR Ag 999 ELIZABETH II 2014 |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-colour reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci's painting 'Madonna of the Carnation', depicting the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, rendered in vibrant polychrome enamel-style printing faithful to the original Renaissance masterwork. Ornamental borders characteristic of Renaissance decorative art frame the central image on the right side, incorporating gilded or relief detailing. The legend 'MADONNA OF THE CARNATION' appears in Latin script, accompanied by the Polish inscription 'MADONNA Z GOŹDZIKIEM', acknowledging the coin's intended audience. The square format of the flan complements the rectangular proportions of the painting's composition. The overall design showcases high-relief printing technology applied to a fine silver field. |
