| Reverse description | Central colorized depiction of Snoopy, the iconic Peanuts character, dressed as a king: wearing a gold and jewelled crown surmounted by a cross, a white ermine-trimmed blue regal mantle, and a flowing red cape, while holding a gold wand tipped with a star. The background field features multiple incuse stars of varying sizes, with a shooting star motif at upper right. The curved legend PEANUTS 60TH arcs along the upper rim. The denomination $50 appears at lower left, and the copyright mark ©UFS at lower right. |

| Additional information |
Niue has long used its Cook Islands-adjacent licensing arrangements to issue legal tender coins featuring licensed pop-culture properties — Peanuts characters among the most recurring. This particular issue capitalizes on the "King Snoopy" motif, part of a broader Schulz-estate licensing program that generated numerous Pacific island gold and silver issues around 2009–2011, most produced by the New Zealand Mint on Niue's behalf. Collector demand rather than circulation drove the entire series; no meaningful quantity ever reached the island itself.
