| Additional information |
Niue's licensing arrangements with the New Zealand Mint have made it one of the more prolific issuers of themed bullion coinage despite having a resident population under 2,000. The Lunar series targeting Chinese New Year collectors is commercially driven, with mintages and pricing set almost entirely by distributor demand rather than any domestic monetary consideration.
The 2016 Monkey year falls in the third cycle of the 60-year sexagenary calendar, a detail that carries weight among serious collectors of the genre.
