| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, diademed and draped, as sculpted by Ian Rank-Broadley, occupying the central field within a raised inner border adorned with a repeating triangular decorative pattern. The legend ELIZABETH II runs vertically along the left field and NIUE ISLAND along the right field. The purity mark AU 999,9 appears to the left of the portrait, the engraver's initials IRB are inscribed below the bust, and the denomination 100 DOLLARS and date 2017 are placed along the lower exergue. A beaded outer rim encircles the entire design. |

| Additional information |
Niue's high-denomination collector gold program operates under a longstanding arrangement by which the island nation licenses its issuing authority to foreign private mints — in this case almost certainly the Polish Mint, which produced the bulk of Niue's premium numismatic gold during this period. The coin itself has no relationship to Niuean monetary history or circulation; it exists entirely as a bullion-adjacent collectible sold into the international numismatic market.
The 46.65 g weight at .9999 fineness places the gold content fractionally above 1.5 troy ounces — a deliberate specification chosen to differentiate the piece from standard 1 oz and 2 oz bullion formats and justify collector premiums.
