| Obverse lettering | NIUE ISLAND TWO DOLLARS PUBLIC SEAL OF NIUE ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI 2023 BUTTERFLY |
| Reverse description | A highly detailed steampunk-style mechanical butterfly rendered in bold high relief, centrally positioned and facing upward with wings fully spread. The butterfly's body and wing framework are finished in gilt gold, while the wing panels are colored in teal-blue enamel, creating a striking polychrome effect. The wings incorporate intricate mechanical motifs including circular gear rosettes, rivet details, and filigree panels evoking clockwork engineering. The surrounding field features a deeply sculpted symmetrical mandala-like floral and foliate pattern of acanthus scrolls and stylized leaf forms radiating outward from the center, struck in antiqued silver to enhance the three-dimensional relief. The rim is plain and unlettered. |
