Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Niue 5 Dollars - Elizabeth II (Marco Polo) 2015 silver coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a polar bear, which is not typically associated with Niue or Marco Polo. The coin's designer, Ian Rank-Broadley, chose to include the polar bear as a symbol of exploration and adventure, reflecting Marco Polo's own travels and discoveries. This design element sets the coin apart from other coins in the series and adds to its collectibility.
