2 Dollars - Elizabeth II Angels of St. Petersburg

Part of a broader Russian-themed collector series issued through Niue, which has functioned as a vehicle for foreign bullion and numismatic programs since the 1990s under licensing arrangements with overseas mints and distributors. The "Angels of St. Petersburg" subject draws on the sculptural angel figures crowning several of the city's landmark spires, most famously the Peter and Paul Cathedral — where the Romanov dynasty lies buried.

Mintage on these Niue-licensed issues is typically controlled tightly by the issuing distributor rather than the Niue government itself.
