Beschrijving keerzijde Enthroned crowned female figure, interpreted as Blanche of Valois, depicted in a Gothic sculptural relief style seated frontally upon a high-backed throne. She holds a sceptre in her left hand and a cross-orb in her right, wearing a crown and long flowing robes. The background flanking the throne features decorative Gothic floral and fleur-de-lis motifs in relief, with draped textile banners visible at the upper corners. The legend 'KAREL IV. A LIDÉ' curves along the lower left rim and 'BLANKA Z VALOIS' along the lower right rim, separated by a trefoil ornament.

Aanvullende informatie

Blanche of Valois, the Bohemian queen this coin commemorates, died in 1348 at roughly 25 years old — likely from plague, the same outbreak that would kill a third of Europe within three years. Her marriage to Charles IV had been politically crucial, tying the Luxemburg dynasty to the French crown, yet she barely lived to see her husband become Holy Roman Emperor.

Niue's gold program for medieval European royalty draws on its standing arrangement with the New Zealand Mint, which handles production for the island's prolific commemorative output.
