| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-length portrait of Polish footballer Robert Lewandowski in a dynamic pose, holding a gold trophy cup in one hand and a gold medal in the other, celebrating his achievements as a championship winner. The figure is rendered in high relief against a largely open field, conveying a sense of triumph and distinction. The inscriptions 'THE WINNER' and 'ROBERT LEWANDOWSKI' appear prominently within the design, serving as the principal legend identifying the subject. The composition is executed in antiqued silver finish, enhancing the sculptural depth of the portrait. |

| Additional information |
Niue has operated as a prolific vehicle for third-party commemorative coin programs since the 1990s, licensing its monetary authority to overseas minting operations targeting the collector market rather than circulation. This "Winner" issue — released in coronation year — belongs to a crowded field of Pacific island-licensed silver rounds that use nominal face values as legal cover for bullion and numismatic sales, with no meaningful connection to the issuing territory.
Two troy ounces at .999 fine puts this squarely in the branded bullion category.
