| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted in right-facing profile with a diademed and draped bust, rendered in high relief against the gold-plated field. The legend ELIZABETH II and NIUE appear above the effigy, with the date 2022 and denomination 2 DOLLARS below. The engraver's initials IRB appear at the truncation of the bust. The lower portion of the field bears the inscriptions 1 oz 999 Fine Silver and the Lucasfilm copyright notice. The entire obverse is shaped to conform to the silhouette outline of the C-3PO character. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylised, chibi-style three-dimensional representation of C-3PO, the protocol droid from the Star Wars franchise, rendered entirely in gold-plated proof finish. The figure is depicted from the waist up, with characteristic large circular eye sockets, a rounded head, and articulated torso panels with a central circular chest element. The highly polished gold plating accentuates the sculptural relief of the droid's mechanical anatomy, giving the design a distinctly bold and cartoonish aesthetic consistent with the Chibi character series. No legends or inscriptions appear on the reverse, the design being entirely pictorial. The coin's shaped flan follows the contour of the C-3PO figure. |
