Issued on the island of Niue, the coin depicts the Tasmanian wolfhound – a predatory marsupial that lived in Tasmania years ago. It is an extinct species that ended its life in the first half of the 20th century. The numismatic coin presents it in a spectacular way, as it used a lenticular technique that gives the impression of movement when the coin is turned.
The extinct animal was applied to the obverse divided into two parts. Its upper area, which occupies about 1/3 of the composition’s surface, depicts the open mouth of the Tasmanian wolfhound and is made using standard embossing technology, while the lower part shows the mammal’s entire silhouette using lenticular technique. The obverse bears the bust of Elizabeth II.
Special features of the coin:
- Coin partly made in lenticular technique
- Composition depicting an extinct Tasmanian wolfhound
- Supplied in a thematic, stylish packaging
- Numismatic coin issued in only 75 pieces
- Queen Elizabeth II on the reverse side
