| Obverse description | Draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right occupies the upper left field, with the legend 'ELIZABETH II' running vertically along the left border and the inscriptions 'NIUE ISLAND' and '1 DOLLAR' below. The date '2010' appears at the lower left. The remaining field features a dynamic allegorical composition depicting milestones in aviation history: a large ornithopter-style wing dominates the centre, flanked by a Wright Brothers-type biplane structure in the middle ground and a detailed rotary aero-engine with propeller at the right. The series title 'HOW MAN CONQUERED THE SKIES' is inscribed in bold relief across the upper right of the rectangular flan. |
