Additional information

Niue's arrangement with the New Zealand Mint has made it one of the most prolific licensing vehicles in the modern bullion and collector coin market. This piece belongs to a series drawing on figures from Greek epic tradition — Achilles most famously from the Iliad, whose mythology has proven commercially durable across collector markets in Europe and Asia. The KM#1876 assignment places it within a catalog so crowded with Niuean commemoratives that numismatic libraries struggle to keep pace with new attributions.
