One of the most exciting annual issues of the 21st century is the Niue Silver Athena Owl. This collection of stackable silver coins revives a design not seen in circulation around the world since 38 BCE. The Niue Silver Athena Owl is produced by SilverTowne, one of Americas greatest private mints. 5th release of Niue Silver Athena Owl Coins! Contains 1 Troy oz of .999 pure silver in BU condition. The face value of $2 (NZD) is fully backed by the Niuean government. On the obverse side is a bust of Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse features the owl of Athena with a crescent moon and olive sprig. Stackable edge! Why silver is a much better option than keeping your money in the bank? Imagine you had $ 1,000.00 in the bank 1 or 2 years ago… how much gas could you buy? And how much gas would you GET for the same $ 1,000.00 today? That is inflation working against you. Silver keeps its value (and usually increases with time) more in pace with the economy not only in our country but around the world. On the obverse side of 2021 Niue Silver Athena Owl Stackable Coins is a bust of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is featured here in right-profile relief in a design that was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley. This bust of the Queen includes a depiction of the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara on her head. This design has featured on the obverse of Niuean coins since 1999. The reverse field of the 2021 1 oz Niue Silver Athena Owl Stackable Coin comes with a depiction of the owl of Athena. The virgin Goddess of Wisdom, Athena became associated with the owl because of the birds existing symbolism and association with knowledge and wisdom. The owl is featured in left-profile relief with two large eyes. Both sides of the coin have a stackable rim design that consists of alternating raised-lowered ledges to ensure easy stacking.
