Additional information

Niue has operated as a prolific bullion and commemorative licensing platform since the 1990s, using its status as a New Zealand realm territory to issue coins that circulate legally but are designed entirely for the collector market. This piece belongs to a dense field of fractional gold issues — at half a gram, it holds essentially no transactional value but satisfies demand for low-entry-cost gold in themed sets.

Christ the Redeemer was completed in 1931 after nine years of construction, funded largely by the Catholic Church in Brazil and engineered by Heitor da Silva Costa with French sculptor Paul Landowski executing the figure itself.
