2 Dollars - Charles III R2-D2

Niue has long operated as one of the Pacific's most permissive licensing hubs for novelty coinage, its agreement with New Zealand allowing the island's name to appear on legal tender issues it has no practical hand in producing. This piece is part of the ongoing Star Wars licensing arrangement, a franchise that has generated more collectible coin programs globally than arguably any other single intellectual property since the late 2000s.

R2-D2 first appeared on screen in 1977.
