Enjoy this stunning high relief issue of Niue, brought to you by the artisans at Mint21 of Poland and the continuation of the “Wildlife in the Moonlight” series.
Panthera Leo is a large, powerfully built cat that is second in size only to the tiger. Lions are unique among cats because they live in a group or pride. Lionesses play a significant role in the pride, as they are pivotal to its prosperity, growth and survival.
On the reverse of this beautifully designed coin, the lioness is shown sitting proudly and in the background, there is a gilded moon overhead. As they hunt primarily at night, they represent the connection to the divine feminine lunar energy of the moon.
Highlights:
Super low mintage
High relief strike with deep antique finish
Select gold plating on the motif
