Obverse lettering ELIZABETH II · NIUE ISLAND IRB · 10 DOLLARS · 2018 ·
Reverse description A finely detailed high-relief depiction of a mature swan and a small, downy duckling standing at the water's edge, evoking the climactic transformation scene from Hans Christian Andersen's celebrated fairy tale. The swan, occupying the upper and left portions of the field, is shown in profile with neck gracefully arched, its plumage rendered in meticulous feather detail, while the smaller cygnet stands to its right. A stylized waterline runs horizontally across the central field, reflecting both birds. The legend HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN · THE UGLY DUCKLING arcs around the lower periphery, and the year of the tale's first publication, 1843, appears along the upper right rim.
