| Obverse description | The Public Seal of Niue occupies the central field, depicted as a circular heraldic device featuring a stylized floral motif surrounded by a zigzag-patterned border, surmounted by a royal crown. The seal is flanked on both sides by an ornamental wreath of elongated leaf-shaped links. Two crossed traditional Niuean paddles appear below the seal, with a scroll bearing the legend ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI. The denomination TWO DOLLARS arches above in the upper field, with the date 2023 below in the lower field. |

Niue's coinage program is essentially a licensing operation — the island nation generates revenue by contracting its monetary authority to foreign mints and bullion dealers, with New Zealand handling its actual currency needs.
