| Obverse lettering | ELIZABETH II · NIUE · FIVE DOLLARS 2015 70 g 999 FINE SILVER |
| Reverse description | The reverse reproduces a detailed section of Gustav Klimt's celebrated 1907–1908 painting 'The Kiss', rendered across the full rectangular surface of the coin with vivid color application. The depicted portion features the richly ornamented robes of the embracing figures, dominated by geometric black and gold rectangular motifs on the male figure's garment and swirling floral and circular patterns in warm gold tones throughout the field. A cluster of red, blue, and multicolored flowers is prominently rendered in the lower-central area, characteristic of Klimt's Symbolist and Art Nouveau style. The polychrome enamel or color-printing technique faithfully captures the gilded, mosaic-like quality of the original masterwork. |
