Niue's zodiac bullion program, issued under licensing arrangements that use the island's nominal sovereignty as a minting vehicle, produced these 1-gram fractional gold pieces primarily for the Asian gift and collectibles market, where zodiac themes command consistent retail premiums over spot. The New Zealand Mint strikes them on Niue's behalf.
