Interesting fact
The Caspian Tiger coin from Niue is a unique and interesting collector's item, as it features a rare and endangered species on its design. The Caspian Tiger, also known as the Persian Tiger, is a subspecies of tiger that was once found in the wild in Iran, but is now considered extinct. The coin's design, created by artist Simon Atlee, features a close-up portrait of the tiger's face, highlighting its distinctive markings and details. The coin's silver content and limited mintage of only 5,000 pieces also add to its value and collectibility.
