| Additional information |
Niue's ongoing Tree of Life platinum series occupies an unusual corner of the bullion-adjacent commemorative market — the island territory's arrangement with New Zealand allows it to issue coins under the New Zealand Crown while functioning effectively as a revenue instrument for the Niuean government. Charles III coinage began appearing across Commonwealth issues following the September 2022 accession, with most mints working through 2023 to update their effigy dies. The Royal Mint supplied the obverse portrait used across the majority of these transitional Commonwealth releases.
