| Reverse description | Central design depicts a front three-quarter low-angle view of a rally car in dynamic motion, shown airborne with its front wheels lifted off a gravel road surface rendered in the lower field. The powerful perspective emphasizes the vehicle's aggressive front fascia including auxiliary driving lamps and protective bumper bar. The curved legend NESTE RALLY FINLAND is inscribed along the lower periphery, with the date 2018 at the right, all within a reeded border. |

| Additional information |
Niue has issued gold coins under licensing arrangements for decades, functioning less as a sovereign mint than as a legal tender vehicle for international bullion and commemorative programs. This piece belongs to a Rally Finland series — one of numerous themed releases targeting collector markets in Europe, particularly Scandinavia and the Baltics, where rally motorsport commands serious cultural weight. Rally Finland, held annually near Jyväskylä, is one of the fastest rounds on the WRC calendar, run almost entirely on gravel roads through dense forest.
At half a gram, the practical function is purely numismatic.
