The eleventh release in Niue's fourteen-part Cathedral series, this piece honors Notre-Dame de Paris roughly five years before the April 2019 fire that destroyed the spire and much of the medieval roof structure. Niue has operated as a reliable vehicle for themed bullion and collector programs since the 1990s, its status as a New Zealand realm territory giving it access to Commonwealth-standard minting infrastructure while keeping sovereign issuing rights.
