| Additional information |
The New Zealand Mint operates as a private commercial mint — not a government institution — and licenses issuing authority from Pacific Island nations to produce legal tender collector coins sold directly to the international market. This Niue-issued piece is one such product, part of a broader licensing arrangement that has made Niue a prolific name on commemorative silver rounds since the early 2000s.
Doyle's Holmes first appeared in print in 1887 in Beeton's Christmas Annual, an edition so scarce that fewer than a dozen copies are known to survive.
