| Reverse description | The reverse displays a vibrant full-colour printed reproduction of the official theatrical poster art for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, rendered across the entire rectangular field. The upper portion features the imposing masked figure of Kylo Ren dominating the blue-toned upper field, with the First Order emblem in red at upper left. A bold diagonal divide separates this from the lower scene, which depicts a spacecraft in high relief silver above a desert landscape reminiscent of Jakku, flanked by TIE fighters in flight, with a lone figure standing in silhouette in the lower foreground. The legend STAR WARS THE FORCE AWAKENS appears in the lower third of the design in stylised lettering. |

Niue has leveraged its longstanding licensing arrangement with major entertainment properties since the early 2010s to issue legal tender coinage that is, functionally, bullion-backed collectibles. The island's GDP is small enough that these issues represent a meaningful revenue stream through seigniorage rather than circulation.
The 3 oz silver format places this squarely in the high-premium collector bullion niche — a weight chosen to accommodate detailed surface work rather than for any monetary logic. *The Force Awakens* was released in December 2015, the first Disney-era theatrical entry after Lucasfilm's 2012 acquisition for $4.05 billion.
