Niue has operated as a licensing hub for commemorative coinage since the 1990s, issuing coins that are legal tender on the island but produced entirely for the collector market with no expectation of circulation. This piece belongs to that category entirely. Hans Christian Andersen died in 1875, and his fairy tales entered the public domain long ago, making him a perennial subject for European and Pacific commemorative programs alike.
At 3.11 g of .999 gold, this is a fractional issue — the standard one-tenth troy ounce format that dominates the modern commemorative gold market.
