10 Dollars - Elizabeth II The Last Supper

Niue has long operated as one of the more prolific issuing authorities in the commemorative silver market, leveraging its status as a New Zealand realm territory to produce collector-targeted pieces with no expectation of circulation. This particular issue belongs to a wave of large-format religious themed silver that flooded the numismatic market in the early 2010s, primarily manufactured by Polish and Czech minting facilities under licensing arrangements with Pacific island governments whose nominal involvement begins and ends with the legal authority to issue currency.

KM#815 is one of several Biblical subject coins struck for Niue in this format during 2012 alone.
