| Additional information |
Niue has functioned as a prolific licensing vehicle for foreign mint programs since the 1990s, with the New Zealand territory's name appearing on collector issues it has no hand in producing. This piece is almost certainly a New Zealand Mint product marketed through that arrangement.
The "Ram of Calvary" belongs to a recurring religious iconography series aimed squarely at the faith-based bullion collector market — a segment that grew measurably after Perth and NZ Mint programs demonstrated its commercial viability in the 2010s.
