| Reverse description | Full-body frontal depiction of the iconic astromech droid R2-D2 from the Star Wars franchise, rendered in vivid applied color across the shaped flan. The domed head features the characteristic black photoreceptor eye with white highlight and a central red indicator, flanked by blue-grey panel details. The cylindrical body displays an array of precisely colored mechanical components, utility arms, and logistical panels in blue-grey and white, with a prominent red button at center. The two outer leg assemblies and central foot are integrated into the overall shaped design, faithfully reproducing the droid's silhouette in three dimensions. |

| Additional information |
Niue has operated a prolific licensed bullion and commemorative program since the 1990s, issuing legal tender under New Zealand's monetary authority while functioning almost entirely as a collectibles vehicle. This particular release was produced under a Disney/Lucasfilm licensing agreement, part of a broader Star Wars series that Niue has struck across multiple years. The coins are manufactured by the New Zealand Mint in Auckland rather than any government facility.
Mintage on these licensed one-ounce issues is typically capped by the licensing terms, not by the issuing authority.
