Niue has operated a prolific bullion and collector coin program since the 1990s, licensing its sovereignty to private minting houses — primarily the New Zealand Mint — who handle design, production, and global distribution. The arrangement is straightforward: Niue collects a licensing fee, and the mint sells numismatic products into the collector market worldwide. The island's actual GDP is roughly $10 million USD.
