Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2013 Niue $1 Silver Coin (Oil Discovery) is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a stylized oil rig, symbolizing the island nation's rich oil reserves and its commitment to sustainable energy sources. The coin's obverse, like all Niuean coins, features an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, adding a touch of regality to the overall design.
