| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II occupies the lower left of the obverse field, depicted in a diademed and draped portrait style. To the right and upper field, a relief scene depicts a horse-drawn Roman-era carriage with a driver, evoking the ancient Amber Route trade imagery. The curved legend NIUE ISLAND arcs along the lower rim, with ELIZABETH II and the date 2012 inscribed below the portrait, alongside the denomination 5 DOLLARS and the gold fineness notation Au 999.9. The inscription SZLAK BURSZTYNOWY, meaning Amber Route in Polish, appears prominently across the upper field. The design blends royal portraiture with historical motif in a distinctive dual-register composition. |
