| Additional information |
Niue's arrangement with the New Zealand Treasury allows it to issue legal tender coins through private mint partnerships — in practice, a licensing mechanism that funds the island's budget while giving bullion dealers a sovereignty stamp for collector products. This piece comes from that pipeline. The "Roaring Lion" belongs to a crowded field of large-format silver rounds dressed as coins, produced by the Perth Mint under that agreement.
Five-ounce .9999 silver at this diameter puts it outside normal circulation consideration entirely. It was a bullion product from inception.
