| 裏面の説明 | The reverse takes the form of a faithful three-dimensional sculptural reproduction of the historic Sigismund Bell, cast in 1520 and housed in Wawel Cathedral, Kraków, Poland. The bell's mantle is decorated with an ornate frieze of Gothic quatrefoil and fleur-de-lis ornaments encircling the shoulder, beneath which a central relief panel depicts a crowned and armored royal figure standing within a Gothic arched niche. Latin inscriptions referencing the bell's dedication and founding are rendered around the body of the bell, and a Roman numeral date appears at the skirt, all faithfully reproducing the iconography of the original historic casting. |

The Sigismund Bell, cast in Kraków in 1520 under the direction of Hans Beham of Nuremberg, is the largest of five bells in the Wawel Cathedral tower and has rung to mark every major event in Polish national life since — coronations, royal funerals, and declarations of independence among them. It is sounded only a handful of times per year, requiring the coordinated effort of several dozen people to swing its clapper by hand.
Niue's arrangement with the Polish mint to issue collector silver on subjects of Polish cultural heritage produced several coins around this period, with the Sigismund Bell among the more substantive subjects in that series.
