| Obverse description | A large detailed depiction of the RMS Titanic sailing to the left dominates the oval field, with an iceberg rendered in the lower left foreground. A circular inset to the upper left features the diademed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right. The Czech Mint mintmark (CM) appears to the left of the inset portrait. The legend 'NIUE ISLAND · ELIZABETH II.' arcs along the upper border, while the denomination '2012 CENTS' is inscribed in large numerals and text in the lower field, with the year '2012' at the right. |

| Additional information |
Niue has long operated as one of the Pacific's more prolific licensing authorities, issuing commemorative silver in its name while the New Zealand dollar functions as actual circulating currency. The Titanic centenary of 2012 generated an enormous volume of collector issues across dozens of mints and licensing arrangements worldwide, and this piece sits squarely in that commercial wave.
KM#786 is a catalog attribution, not a mark of numismatic distinction. Buy for the silver content or the Titanic theme — not for any expectation of future scarcity.
