| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing diademed and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, whose initials IRB appear beneath the truncation. The circumferential legend reads ELIZABETH II · NIUE ISLAND in the upper field, with the denomination 2 DOLLARS and the date 2017 arranged along the lower periphery, all separated by raised dot stops. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a polished field, consistent with proof coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niue's authority to issue legal tender coinage derives from a 1981 agreement with New Zealand, which handles Niue's defense and foreign affairs. The island's own population has never exceeded a few thousand, making it one of the more unusual sovereign issuers in modern numismatics — its mint output vastly outnumbers its citizenry.
This piece belongs to a broader wave of fractional gold issues produced for the collector market in the 2010s, when refiners and mints competed aggressively on minimum gold content to hit accessible price points. At 0.65 g of .999 fine gold, it contains just under a thirtieth of a troy ounce.
