| Obverse description | Crowned and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, after the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, whose initials IRB appear on the truncation. The legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II · NIUE ISLAND arcs around the upper field, while ONE DOLLAR · 2018 · is inscribed along the lower border. The central portrait is framed by a dotted inner border, beyond which an ornate Greek key (meander) decorative band encircles the entire design, lending the coin a distinctly East Asian aesthetic appropriate to its trade dollar theme. |

| Reverse description | A standing figure of Britannia, helmeted and draped in classical robes, occupies the central field. She holds a trident in her raised left hand and rests her right hand upon a Union Jack-emblazoned shield at her side. A three-masted sailing vessel is depicted in the lower left field behind her, evoking the maritime trade of the East India Company era. The legend THE EAST INDIA COMPANY arcs across the upper border and TRADE DOLLAR along the lower, separated by dot stops, all framed by a dotted inner circle and the same Greek key meander border as the obverse. |
