Niue has long functioned as a licensing jurisdiction for novelty bullion issues, with the New Zealand territory lending its sovereign status to collectible programs that have no meaningful circulation history.

KM#3694 attribution places it firmly within this commercial bullion category. One troy ounce of .999 silver is the actual commodity here.
