Niue has operated as a prolific bullion and collector coin issuing authority since the 1990s, licensing its name under agreements with New Zealand — which retains responsibility for Niue's defense and foreign affairs — while the coins themselves are invariably produced by external mints, in this case the Perth Mint. The Lunar series tied to the Chinese zodiac calendar commands consistent secondary-market demand across East and Southeast Asian collector networks, which is precisely why small Pacific island jurisdictions keep issuing them.
Charles III's effigy appears on Niue coinage following his accession in September 2022, making 2023 the first full lunar-year issue to bear his portrait rather than Elizabeth II's.
