| Additional information |
Niue has issued dragon-themed lunar coins under licensing agreements with the Perth Mint for years, functioning essentially as a bullion vehicle dressed in New Zealand's Cook Islands-adjacent treaty framework — Niue's coinage rights derive from its status as a self-governing state in free association with New Zealand. The 2024 issue falls in the first full lunar cycle to carry Charles III's effigy, following the Queen's death in September 2022 and the subsequent re-tooling of obverse dies across dozens of Commonwealth mint programs simultaneously.
