Obverse: The obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by decorative nature-inspired motifs characteristic of the Art Nouveau style. Around the portrait are inscriptions indicating the issuing country “NIUE”, the denomination “2 DOLLARS”, the silver fineness “Ag 999”, and the year “2024”.
Reverse: The reverse depicts a graceful female figure standing in a pearl shell, symbolizing the lightness, elegance, and vitality of summer. The composition subtly recalls Sandro Botticelli’s famous painting “The Birth of Venus.” The background is decorated with motifs of marine life — jellyfish, sea plants, and other stylized details reflecting the magical mystery of summer. Jellyfish symbolize protection from evil and add a sense of mysticism.

Designed by Lucrezia Delfini, the Art Nouveau–style coin embodies the freedom and delicate beauty of summer. Perfect for those born in summer or cherishing special summer memories.
