| Additional information |
Niue has long operated as a prolific issuer of commemorative silver for the collector market, licensing its sovereign minting authority to produce themed issues that have no circulation life whatsoever. This piece belongs squarely in that category — a bullion-weight fine silver round dressed in legal tender clothing, produced for the thematic collector market rather than any monetary function.
The Cancer zodiac series of which this is part was struck at the Mennica Polska mint in Warsaw, which has handled a significant portion of Niue's commemorative output during this period.
