背面描述	A richly detailed, fully colored scene depicting three Hesperides nymphs, the guardians of the mythological Garden of the Hesperides, attending the sacred tree bearing the golden apples of immortality. The nymphs are rendered in flowing classical drapery amid lush foliage, flowers, and golden fruit, evoking the style of classical mythology illustration. The composition fills the entire reverse field with intricate relief work and vivid polychrome enamel coloring, creating a deeply pictorial effect characteristic of high-end modern collector coinage.

附加信息	The Hesperides myth — daughters of Atlas set to guard a tree of golden apples at the western edge of the world — entered coinage iconography largely through the 19th-century allegorical tradition, but modern bullion programs have revived it as a vehicle for high-relief sculptural work. Niue's arrangement with the New Zealand Mint allows it to issue legal tender under the Cook Islands framework while functioning entirely as a collectibles vehicle; no piece in this series ever circulates. Charles III's cypher appears here as head of state of New Zealand, whose currency relationship with Niue dates to the 1974 Niue Constitution Act.
