| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a finely engraved portrait of Edgar Allan Poe in three-quarter facing view, rendered in high relief with meticulous detail to his facial features, wavy hair, and cravat. To the left of the portrait, a torn-paper or jagged-edge artistic element creates a shadowed silhouette profile of Poe in the background field. The name EDGAR ALLAN POE appears in a stylised, expressive lettering to the left, with POE rendered in a bold calligraphic monogram. The engraver's initials SR appear to the lower right of the portrait. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niue has operated as a licensing vehicle for foreign-themed bullion and collector issues since the 1990s, using its status as a New Zealand realm territory to issue legal tender struck almost entirely for the international collector market. This Poe piece belongs to a broader literary series produced in that commercial framework — coins that circulate through dealers and auction houses, never through Niue itself.
Poe died in Baltimore in October 1849 under circumstances still unresolved: he was found delirious on a street, wearing clothes not his own, and never regained enough coherence to explain what had happened to him.
