| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features a right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing a floral tiara, set within a raised inner circle against a mirror-polished proof field. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs above the portrait, while the denomination ONE DOLLAR is inscribed vertically at left and below the effigy within the circle. The outer annular field, rendered in frosted relief, depicts intricate engraved butterfly wing venation extending across the entire border, creating a distinctive decorative frame. The country name NIUE ISLAND and the date 2011 are inscribed along the upper rim outside the inner circle. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niue's legal tender coinage exists almost entirely as a vehicle for foreign collector programs — the island's own monetary needs are met by New Zealand dollars, leaving its nominal dollar issues free to pursue whatever subject matter the licensing market will bear. The Papilio machaon, the Old World swallowtail, was chosen as part of a broader nature series aimed squarely at the European collector market, where the species is native and recognizable.
KM#652 is one of dozens of nearly identical Niue issues from this period sharing the same planchet specification — a deliberate standardization that kept production costs predictable across the series.
