| Obverse description | The right-facing effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II occupies the central field, rendered against a superimposed polar-projection map of the Arctic region delineated by a grid of meridians and parallels. The left half of the field is struck in a contrasting dark finish, creating a bold chiaroscuro effect that divides the design between illuminated and shadowed hemispheres. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' arcs along the upper left periphery, while 'NIUE ISLAND' curves along the upper right. The denomination '5 DOLLARS' and the date '2020' are inscribed along the lower portion of the coin, flanking the base of the portrait. |
