10 Dollars - Elizabeth II Bacchus

Bacchus was issued as part of a broader series of mythological subjects produced for Niue by the New Zealand Mint — a mint that has become one of the more prolific producers of collector silver on behalf of small Pacific island nations whose coin programs exist almost entirely outside domestic circulation. Niue's GDP in 2014 was roughly $17 million USD; the numismatic licensing revenue is not incidental to the territory's finances.

The two-troy-ounce specification places this squarely in the bullion-adjacent collector market of the early 2010s, when silver spot hovering near $20/oz made large-format issues commercially viable at modest premiums.
