1 Dollar - Elizabeth II Silurians

Niue has become one of the more prolific licensing hubs in modern numismatics, entering agreements with major IP holders to produce legal tender issues under its sovereignty. This piece is part of a series tied to the BBC science fiction franchise Doctor Who, specifically featuring the Silurians — reptilian humanoids introduced in the 1970 serial "Doctor Who and the Silurians." The Royal Mint struck Niue-issued commemoratives under similar arrangements during this period, though production of Pacific island bullion programs more commonly ran through the Perth Mint.
