| Averslegende | ELIZABETH II · NIUE · TWO DOLLARS RDM 2011 |
| Reversbeschreibung | Central high-relief depiction of a Boeing B-52 Stratofortress strategic bomber rendered in a top-down aerial perspective, its swept wings spanning nearly the full width of the inner field, set against a textured background evoking clouds or terrain. The aircraft is surrounded by a decorative compass-rose border incorporating alternating rectangular segments and red-enamelled triangular cardinal markers at the four intercardinal points. The series title LEGENDS OF THE AIR arcs across the upper field, with the denomination $2 to the left and the fineness .999 FINE SILVER to the right. The inscription B-52 STRATOFORTRESS BOMBER curves along the lower portion of the inner border. |

Niue has been issuing themed silver coins for foreign collectors since the 1990s, essentially operating as a licensing vehicle for the New Zealand mint while generating revenue well in excess of what its 1,600-person population could sustain through trade. This piece commemorates the Boeing B-52, which entered USAF service in 1955 and remains operational — an extraordinary longevity for any weapons platform, with airframes expected to fly into the 2050s.
No B-52 has ever dropped a nuclear weapon in combat. They did drop more conventional tonnage over Vietnam than all Allied bombing in World War II combined.
