| Obverse description | The obverse bears the Public Seal of Niue, rendered in fine detail at center, depicting a crowned circular seal surmounted by a royal crown and flanked by laurel branches, with crossed instruments below. The denomination TWO DOLLARS is inscribed in a curved legend along the upper field, with the motto ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI appearing on a ribbon beneath the seal. The date 2023 is placed in the lower central field, and the inscriptions 1 oz 999 Fine Silver and MARVEL appear at the very base of the shaped flan. The entire composition is struck on a non-circular flan shaped in the stylized form of a chibi character figure, echoing the coin's pop-culture theme. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a chibi-style stylized rendition of the Marvel Comics superhero Ant-Man, depicted in his iconic dark grey and red suit with characteristic helmet featuring prominent red segmented eye lenses and twin antennae rising from the crown. The figure is rendered in vibrant color application over a minted relief, with red accents highlighting the chest armor, leg markings, and facial visor against the predominantly dark grey bodysuit. The stocky, simplified proportions are characteristic of the chibi artistic convention, lending the design a playful collectible aesthetic. The shaped flan conforms closely to the outline of the figure, reinforcing the three-dimensional sculptural quality of the design. |
