About the coin: The 2022 Niue 2 Dollar silver coin “Pirates of the Caribbean – Queen Anne’s Revenge” celebrates Disney's popular “Pirates of the Caribbean” film franchise.
The “Queen Anne’s Revenge” is a fearsome pirate ship featured in the 2011 film “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides”. It is commanded by Blackbeard, a dangerous pirate known for his supernatural powers.
The ship's name also has a historical connection. In the early 18th century, the notorious pirate Edward Teach, known as Blackbeard, commanded a real vessel named “Queen Anne’s Revenge”.
Struck from .999 fine silver, the coin weighs 1 troy ounce (31.1 g) and has a face value of 2 Niue dollars. With a limited mintage of 15,000 pieces, the officially licensed Disney design combines cinematic adventure, pirate history and collectible numismatics.
