Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse features a richly detailed color-enhanced design commemorating the 70th anniversary of the Korean War (1950–1953). Three soldiers rendered in high relief stand in the foreground, referencing the statuary style of war memorials, with the central figure holding a large artillery shell, flanked by two comrades in full combat gear against a backdrop of stylized stone obelisks and vertical lines evoking a memorial wall. A circular border of color-printed national flags of the United Nations coalition forces encircles the composition. A silver-toned '70 YEARS' medallion framed by laurel branches is placed at the lower center of the field. The arched legends KOREAN WAR 1950-1953 and PEACE AND INDEPENDENCE appear along the upper periphery.

Aanvullende informatie

Niue has operated as a prolific bullion and commemorative issuing vehicle since the 1990s, licensing its monetary authority to third-party mints — principally the New Zealand Mint — to produce collector pieces with no meaningful domestic circulation. This particular issue commemorates the Korean War, the 1950–1953 conflict that killed an estimated 36,000 Americans and over 100,000 UN coalition troops, and which ended not in a peace treaty but an armistice that technically remains in force today.

Gold-plated copper at 110 grams places this firmly in the large-format souvenir category, not the numismatic investment tier.
