| Additional information |
Niue has operated as a prolific bullion and collector coin issuing authority since the 1990s, licensing its name to private minting operations — primarily the New Zealand Mint — under an arrangement that generates revenue for an island territory with a population under 2,000. This piece is part of the Lunar series tied to the Chinese zodiac cycle, a format that has become one of the most commercially saturated segments of the modern numismatic market.
The Tiger year ran from February 2022 to January 2023.
