Niue Coin List
Niue numismatics is a fascinating subject that reflects the history and culture of this small South Pacific island nation. Although Niue uses the New Zealand dollar as its official currency, it has issued its own commemorative and collector coins over the years, which has attracted the interest of collectors from around the world.
Monetary history of Niue
Before adopting the New Zealand dollar, Niue used the British monetary system due to its status as a protectorate of New Zealand. In 1901, the first Niue-specific coins were introduced, although these were primarily for ceremonial and collector use. The transition to the New Zealand dollar occurred in 1967, when New Zealand changed its monetary system, and Niue followed this change as part of its association with the country.
Relevant numismatic milestones
Niue has gained recognition in the numismatic world for its innovative commemorative coins. In 2001, it issued the world's first coin with an embedded hologram, commemorating the new millennium. In addition, Niue has produced coins with popular themes such as Disney characters, Marvel superheroes and Star Wars, which has increased its appeal among collectors. These special issues, although not circulating in the daily economy, have positioned Niue as a major issuer of collectible coins in the international numismatic market.
