| Obverse description | Diademed and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, whose initials IRB appear at the truncation. A decorative linden branch with heart-shaped leaves and buds extends beneath the portrait across the lower field. The Czech Mint mark (CM) appears to the left of the effigy. The circular legend reads NIUE ISLAND and ELIZABETH II flanking the portrait, with the date above and the denomination 5 DOLLARS inscribed along the lower rim. |

| Reverse description | The heraldic Bohemian double-tailed lion is depicted in a couchant posture, rendered in high relief, guarding the Crown of Saint Wenceslas resting upon an ornate cushion. An ornamented shield bearing the Bohemian eagle — the emblem of Saint Wenceslas — is prominently displayed alongside the regalia. The composition reflects the rich tradition of Bohemian royal heraldry. The legend along the lower portion of the field identifies the fineness and issuing authority. |
