| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed top-down aerial view of Bo-Katan's Gauntlet Starfighter from the Star Wars universe, the entire coin struck in the distinctive outline shape of the vessel. Intricate surface detailing replicates the spacecraft's hull panels, mechanical structures, engine housings, and cockpit canopy in deeply sculpted relief, conveying a strong sense of three-dimensional realism. The symmetrical twin-wing configuration with a central fuselage and forward cockpit is faithfully reproduced, with fine engraving throughout capturing panel lines, vents, and mechanical components. The antiqued finish enhances the depth and contrast of the sculptural relief across the field. No legends or inscriptions appear on the reverse. |

Niue has operated as a licensing vehicle for the New Zealand Mint's pop-culture bullion program for over a decade, lending its legal tender status to issues that have no meaningful connection to the island's 1,600-person population. This piece is part of the Star Wars Ships series, which the New Zealand Mint has expanded aggressively since the mid-2010s under a licensing arrangement with Lucasfilm.
Bo-Katan Kryze's Gauntlet-class fighter gained renewed prominence through the television series The Mandalorian and its spinoff The Book of Boba Fett, making 2023 a commercially logical release window. One-troy-ounce .999 silver issues of this type trade almost entirely on spot silver value plus collector premium — secondary market prices follow the franchise, not numismatic fundamentals.
