| Obverse lettering | ELIZABETH II NIUE IRB 2 DOLLARS 2014 |
| Reverse description | Rectangular flan depicting an icon-style devotional scene of Saint Sophia and her three daughters — Faith, Hope, and Charity — rendered in high relief with selective gold colorization applied to the figures' garments and haloes. Saint Sophia is shown standing centrally in the upper register, her right hand raised in blessing and her head surrounded by an elaborately filigreed nimbus; the three daughters are arranged before her in attitudes of prayer, each likewise adorned with a decorative halo. The entire composition is framed by an intricately engraved foliate border of Byzantine ornamental character, with a mirror-polished silver field visible in the upper background, creating a striking contrast with the oxidized relief elements. |
