| Reverse description | Full-color depiction of principal characters from the Disney animated film Moana, rendered in vivid polychrome enamel against a milled silver field with decorative Polynesian geometric border. The central and dominant figure is Moana, standing tall and holding Maui's fish hook, her long dark hair flowing freely. Below her, the demigod Maui is prominently featured with his characteristic tattoos, surrounded by supporting characters including Tamatoa and other villagers. In the foreground, the animal companions Pua and Hei Hei are depicted among a garland of pink plumeria blossoms. The Disney copyright notice and the purity inscription appear along the lower edge of the flan. |

Niue has operated as a prolific licensing hub for commemorative silver issues since the 1990s, contracting its sovereign minting rights to producers targeting the collector market — a revenue stream that now dwarfs the island's other exports. The "Moana" branding places this squarely in a well-documented product category: Pacific-themed collector rounds issued under Niue's authority but with no meaningful circulation history on the island itself.
Charles III's accession in September 2022 triggered a global refresh cycle across all Commonwealth issuing authorities, including Niue's contracted series.
