COIN INFORMATION

This is the second design in the Magnum Opus series of premium bullion coins by the Pressburg Mint, and the first one issued for Niue (the first edition was for Tokelau). The coins in the series have a new design every year and are about the beauty of mathematics.

Mathematics is the language of nature and the Golden Ratio has baffled scientists for centuries. Showing up everywhere from snail shells to financial markets and all the way to galaxies, this peculiar law of nature seeps into everything.

Niue, a sovereign state in free association with New Zealand, uses two official legal tender currencies. The New Zealand Dollar is the circulation currency for daily transactions, while the government also authorises legal tender coins in the Niue Dollar currency for collector’s purposes.

The obverse: of the coin features the (unofficial) “Public Seal of Niue”. It has what looks like a plant arrangement at centre, within a double ornamental circle, itself surrounded by a circle of sea shells. This is crowned with St Edward’s Crown (a symbol of the United Kingdom, the monarch of which is ultimately the Head of State of Niue), Around above between the two, the inscription PUBLIC SEAL OF NIUE. Below that, a ribbon carries the motto ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI on two lines, below which two crossed katoua (Niue fighting clubs), Around above, the name of the country and the date of issue: NIUE 2023. Around below, the face value 2 DOLLARS.

The reverse: design shows a number of geometric patterns illustrating the “golden ratio”. In a square in the centre, the inscription MAGNUM OPUS, Above right, the precious metal content 1 oz Ag 9999 (one troy ounce of 99.99% silver; Ag is abbreviated from Argentum, the Latin word for silver).
