The image of the Jolly Roger is iconic. This symbol was made famous from its use by Samuel Bellamy. While Bellamy likely had one of the shortest pirate careers, it didn't take him long to gain widespread fame. (Source)
Naturally, when I saw Niue was making a limited mintage coin of it, I knew I had to have it!
Obverse
On the obverse, we have the Seal of Niue. I love the waving lines making up the background. It gives the design a sense of animation, like a flag waving in the wind. Around the border are small sea waves, for a nice added touch.
Reverse
On the reverse, we have the infamous Jolly Roger! The design isn't overly complex, but with the repeated waving lines and sea wave border, it makes for a beautiful piece!
Specifications
Purity: .9999
Weight: 1oz
Mintage: 15,000
At a mintage of only 15,000 and a design like this, it's no surprise to see them listed for around $50+ each. I managed to snag one for $36.50, so I got a heck of a deal! If you see one of these, don't hesitate to buy one if it's listed for a good price!
