| Obverse description | Right-facing diademed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing a tiara and pearl earring, rendered in high relief after the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left rim, NIUE appears at the top, and 250 DOLLARS descends along the right rim. The date 2017 is inscribed at the base of the field below the portrait. The polished gold field provides a strong contrast to the finely detailed bust. |
