Obverse description Central medallion bearing the fourth effigy of Queen Elizabeth II in right-facing profile, diademed and draped, after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley whose initials appear below the truncation. Surrounding the central portrait, the annular field is decorated with eight rectangular panels depicting the national flags of the Allied nations that participated in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, rendered in high relief against a polished mirror background. The circumferential legend reads ELIZABETH II · NIUE ISLAND · 2019, with the denomination 5 DOLLARS inscribed at the base; the Czech Mint mark appears at lower left of the border.

Reverse description A finely detailed high-relief depiction of a World War II-era warship, rendered in three-quarter aerial perspective advancing diagonally across the field, with aircraft in flight visible in the upper portion of the design. The background features a stylized radar or rangefinder grid composed of concentric circular lines intersected by radiating straight lines, evoking both naval warfare technology and the strategic setting of the October 1944 engagement. The legend BATTLE OF LEYTE arcs along the upper periphery in bold raised lettering, while the lower field and rim are left plain.
