| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the monarch in right-facing profile with a diademed and elaborately coiffured bust. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear below the truncation. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' arcs along the left rim, while 'NIUE 2014' is inscribed at the top and '10 DOLLARS' descends along the right rim. The inscription '5OZ 999 SILVER' is prominently displayed along the lower field, denoting the coin's fine silver content and weight. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vivid full-color scene commemorating the declaration of war in 1914, the centenary of the First World War. In the foreground, a uniformed Anzac soldier wearing a slouch hat, full kit, and carrying a rifle raises his right hand in farewell, depicted in polychrome color print. Behind him, warships rendered in silver relief steam through a choppy sea beneath billowing smoke clouds. The large numerals '1914' dominate the lower central field, with the word 'CENTENARY' incorporated vertically between the digits. The inscriptions 'FIRST WORLD WAR' arc across the upper field in bold lettering, and 'WAR DECLARED' appears along the lower field, with ropes and anchor chain rendered in relief at the bottom rim. |
