2 Dollars - Elizabeth II Year of the Horse

Niue's arrangement with the New Zealand Mint has produced dozens of lunar-themed bullion issues under its sovereign authority, a practical outcome of the island's long-standing use of the New Zealand dollar as its actual currency. The country issues legal tender collector coins almost entirely as a revenue mechanism, with no expectation of domestic circulation.

The Horse year in the standard Chinese lunar cycle ran from January 31, 2014 to February 18, 2015.
