Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2020 Niue $2 Silver Elizabeth II (Year of the Rat) coin is that it features a unique rat design on the reverse side, which is not commonly seen on coins. The rat is depicted in a standing position, with its front paws together and its head turned slightly to the side, giving it a cute and endearing appearance. This design was created by the artist, Jamie Scribbins, and it adds a touch of whimsy and charm to the coin.
