1 Dollar - Elizabeth II The Mystic Nativity: 8/15

Niue has operated as a reliable vehicle for commemorative silver programs since the 1990s, licensing its currency authority to overseas minting operations — in this case almost certainly the New Zealand Mint, which has produced the majority of Niue's collector issues. The "Mystic Nativity" subject references Botticelli's painting of the same name, completed around 1500 and now held at the National Gallery in London. The "8/15" designation marks this as the eighth in a fifteen-piece series, a format common to NZ Mint licensed programs of this period.
