The legend NAPOLEON BONAPARTE arcs along the upper field, while AG 999, 2 OZ., and 5 DOLLARS are inscribed in scrolled banners along the lower and lateral fields. The entire design is executed in antiqued high relief against a finely patterned floral background. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Three-quarter bust portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte occupying the right portion of the field, depicted in his characteristic dark blue campaign coat with gold epaulettes and red cuffs, wearing the bicorne hat, and bearing the Legion of Honour decoration on his chest, rendered in selective colour. A tricolour French flag with applied colour is held aloft in the left mid-field, behind which a finely detailed low-relief battle scene unfolds, depicting mounted cavalry, infantry soldiers, and artillery cannon on a chequered ground with gold highlights suggesting a battlefield. Billowing smoke fills the background in antiqued silver relief. The cursive inscription Napoleon Bonaparte appears in gilt script in the upper left field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niue has become a reliable vehicle for themed collector silver, and this piece sits in a crowded field of Pacific-island-licensed commemoratives produced largely for the European and North American collector markets. The actual connection between Niue and Napoleon III is purely administrative — the island's status as a New Zealand territory grants it ISO 4217 currency recognition, which bullion program operators exploit for face-value denomination rights.
Napoleon III remains the only person to have served as both President and Emperor of France. His Second Empire collapsed in September 1870 after his capture at Sedan — the only sitting French head of state taken prisoner by a foreign army.
