| Reverse description | A highly detailed phoenix rendered in an elaborate, swirling Art Nouveau-inspired style, depicted rising dynamically within a circular ornamental field filled with flowing flame and foliate scrollwork motifs. The mythological bird is shown with outstretched wings and dramatically detailed plumage, conveying a sense of rebirth and power. The legend 'SILVER PHOENIX' is inscribed along the upper periphery in raised capital letters, while the lower portion of the field bears the inscriptions '2023', '1oz', 'FINE SILVER', and '999', confirming the coin's fineness and weight. A reeded rim frames the entire design. |

| Additional information |
Niue's arrangement with the New Zealand Mint has made it one of the most prolific bullion and collector coin issuers relative to its population — roughly 1,600 people — with the island's legal tender framework used almost entirely for export numismatic product rather than domestic circulation. This piece is part of that commercial program, with "Charles III" on the obverse reflecting the mid-series transition following Elizabeth II's death in September 2022.
