WB shield motif in the field. The group comprises Sylvester the Cat, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tweety Bird, Porky Pig, and Taz (the Tasmanian Devil), each rendered in the classic animated style and dressed in the blue, red, and yellow Superman costume. The characters are arranged in a dynamic group composition occupying the centre and lower field of the shield.

Niue's licensing arrangement with Warner Bros. has made the island nation one of the more prolific issuers of pop-culture bullion since the early 2010s, a revenue stream that dwarfs anything the territory generates from conventional commerce. This particular issue is part of a broader DC Comics series and carries legal tender status under New Zealand's Currency Act, which governs Niue's monetary framework — though no one is spending two troy ounces of fine silver at face value in Alofi.
