| Obverse lettering | ELIZABETH II NIUE 10 DOLLARS 2017 |
| Reverse description | A finely detailed high-relief depiction of a Lady's-slipper orchid (Cypripedium calceolus) occupies the central field, showing the characteristic inflated labellum pouch and spreading lateral petals with broad ovate leaves on a single stem. The scientific name CYPRIPEDIUM CALCEOLUS is inscribed in two arcs along the upper periphery in bold capital letters. The engraver's monogram LR appears in the lower central field beneath the floral motif. The overall composition is naturalistic and botanically accurate, executed in the style of a collector's proof issue. |
