| Reverse description | The reverse displays the iconic Aerosmith winged logo in bold relief at center, featuring the stylized interlocked double-A emblem flanked by swept wings adorned with feather detailing and two five-pointed stars. The band name AEROSMITH appears in the group's characteristic graffiti-style lettering integrated within the wing device. Above the logo, the founding year 1973 is inscribed between two five-pointed stars, with the commemorative inscription 50 YEARS in large bold lettering immediately below. The mirror-polished field provides strong contrast against the finely detailed relief elements. |

| Additional information |
Niue has operated a legal tender licensing program since the 1990s, issuing coins under New Zealand monetary authority that function almost exclusively as collectibles with no domestic circulation. This piece is part of that commercial framework, produced in partnership with a private mint to capitalize on Aerosmith's 50th anniversary touring cycle.
The band formed in Boston in 1970. Their relationship with licensed merchandise — including coins and bullion — expanded significantly after their 1993–1994 commercial resurgence driven by the Get a Grip album cycle.
