Interesting fact

The Arctic Tern coin from Niue is unique in that it features a design that changes depending on the angle of the light. The coin's reverse side features a colorful image of an Arctic Tern in flight, which appears to change as the coin is turned, giving the illusion of movement. This innovative design technique is known as "angular minting" and creates a fascinating visual effect that sets the coin apart from others.
