Additional legends in the lower field read 1 oz 999 Fine Silver and TWO-FACE, along with the DC copyright and trademark notice.

| Additional information |
Niue's ongoing arrangement with the New Zealand Mint has made the island one of the more prolific licensors of collectible coinage since the early 2000s — a revenue model that funds government operations for a nation of roughly 1,600 people with essentially no other export economy. This piece belongs to that commercial program rather than any circulating monetary system.
The "Two-Face" designation places it within a broader numismatic novelty category sometimes called coin-in-coin or split-face formats, where two distinct imagery planes are engineered into a single planchet through selective minting or layering techniques.
