Reverse description The reverse depicts a detailed architectural rendering of the Romanesque rotunda of St. Catherine in Znojmo, Czech Republic, presented in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The cylindrical tower with its conical roof and an adjoining fortification wall with stairways occupy the lower portion of the field, conveying the historic character of the 11th-century landmark. The city name ZNOJMO is inscribed in arcing legend along the upper portion of the field. The engraver's monogram Lk appears in the lower left field.

Additional information

Znojmo, a Moravian city whose catacomb network stretches over a kilometer beneath its historic center, has appeared on several Czech-themed bullion issues marketed through Pacific sovereign minting programs. Niue's legal tender framework — established through a longstanding arrangement with the New Zealand government — has made it a favored issuing authority for small-format gold fractionals like this one, where the nominal face value is purely formal and the coin trades entirely on its metal content.
