The Design

A high-relief coin is a piece whose surfaces received a special treatment to raise design elements and obtain a 3-D effect. That makes them higher than the borders making intricate details more visible.

The obverse design showcases the Coat of Arms of Niue, the coin’s face value, and the year of issuance.

The coin got this moniker because of its reverse design, which has a lion’s head in the spotlight, depicted with a wide open mouth and sharp teeth, as it is roaring. This lion is named the Lion of Judah because of the Aleph Tav Symbol את on the crown.

In this design, the hidden truth lies in its crown band.

The inscriptions “ONE TROY OUNCE .9999 FINE SILVER” engraved beneath the crowned lion refer to the coin’s weight, metal content, and purity.
