| Obverse description | The obverse features the fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted in right-facing profile as a mature bust wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a mirror-polished field. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' arcs along the left periphery, 'NIUE' appears at the top, and 'TWO DOLLARS' descends along the right. The date '2017' is inscribed at the lower field, and the engraver's initials 'IRB' appear below the truncation. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vibrant full-color portrait of Mickey Mouse as depicted in the 1983 Disney animated short 'Mickey's Christmas Carol,' rendered in the character's role as Bob Cratchit. The central design shows Mickey's smiling face in frontal view, wearing a brown top hat and a rust-colored scarf, applied with vivid polychrome coloring over a proof-finished silver field. Radiating lines extend outward from the central motif, creating a sunburst effect in the uncolored field. The inscription '1 oz 999 Fine Silver © Disney' arcs along the lower left periphery, while 'Mickey's Christmas Carol, 1983' curves along the lower right. |
