| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-color icon-style depiction of Saint Sergius of Radonezh, shown as a bearded monastic elder in dark brown robes, his right hand raised in blessing and his left hand holding a scroll. The saint is surrounded by a gilded halo, and the elaborate background features a white frosted floral damascene pattern in high relief. Two small silver relief panels flanking the saint depict additional sacred imagery. A gilded ornamental border frames the entire reverse field. Cyrillic inscriptions identifying the saint appear at the upper left and right within gilded cartouches. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sergius of Radonezh founded the Trinity Monastery north of Moscow in the 1340s and became the spiritual backbone of Russian resistance to Mongol rule — it was his blessing that Grand Prince Dmitry Donskoy sought before the Battle of Kulikovo in 1380. Niue's arrangement with foreign mints to produce silver issues commemorating Orthodox saints is a straightforward licensing arrangement; the island nation holds no cultural connection to the subject matter.
