| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted as a right-facing laureate bust occupying the left field. Surrounding the central composition is an elaborate high-relief decorative background evoking the ornamental amber panel inlays of the historic Amber Room, with intricately rendered mosaic-like geometric and foliate motifs filling the field. Prominently displayed in the centre is a large three-dimensional royal crown surmounted by an orb and cross, executed in fine sculptural relief, with acanthus and floral ornamental details at its base. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' runs vertically along the left rim, while 'NIUE ISLAND' and the date '2012' arc across the upper border; the fineness mark 'Ag925' appears in the lower left field, and the denomination '2 DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower rim. |
