| Beschrijving keerzijde | Highly detailed antiqued silver relief scene inspired by Gustave Doré's celebrated engraving of The New Jerusalem from the Book of Revelation. The composition depicts a winged angel guiding the Apostle John as he beholds the descent of the holy city from the heavens, rendered with intricate crosshatching and fine line work characteristic of Doré's illustrative style. Radiant light emanates from the celestial city in the upper field, while figures appear below in awe. The legend THE NEW JERUSALEM is inscribed within the design. The antiqued finish enhances the dramatic chiaroscuro effect of the imagery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niue's legal tender coinage has functioned almost entirely as a vehicle for third-party bullion and collector programs since the 1990s, with the island nation's treasury collecting licensing fees while the actual commercial operation is handled by external mints and distributors. This piece is part of that framework — two troy ounces of fine silver issued under Niuean authority but designed, marketed, and sold outside the Pacific entirely.
The "New Jerusalem" theme draws from Revelation 21, a subject that found a surge in commemorative coin programs during the 2010s across multiple small-nation issuers simultaneously.
