Obverse description Unadorned left-facing effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, rendered in high relief against a darkened ruthenium-treated field. The portrait, signed with the engraver's initials 'JC' below the truncation, shows the King in civilian dress without crown or regalia. The circular legend reads 'CHARLES III · NIUE 2024 · 10 DOLLARS' around the upper periphery, with '· 5oz 999 SILVER ·' inscribed along the lower border, all in raised Latin characters.

Reverse description Two intricately detailed East Asian celestial dragons dominate the deeply sculpted, ruthenium-blackened field. The upper dragon, rendered in polished silver relief, rears upward with open jaws, its scaled serpentine body coiling dramatically across the upper half of the design. The lower dragon, finished in selective gold gilding, advances across stylised clouds and waves in the lower field, its fearsome visage facing right. At the centre of the composition, a circular cartouche bearing the Chinese character '龍' (dragon) in gold on a black ground serves as the focal point uniting the two figures.
