100 YEARS OF SCIENCE 2 Oz Silver Coin 5$ Niue 2026

The reverse of this Silver coin unfolds a dense and symbolic panorama of scientific progress. At the center, an all-seeing eye and an open hand frame the inscription "100 YEARS OF SCIENCE", evoking knowledge offered, observed, and understood. Surrounding this core, sculpted scenes illustrate the defining breakthroughs of the last century: the discovery of Penicillin, the invention of the electron microscope, the atomic age, the unveiling of DNA's double helix, the first steps on the Moon, the birth of the microprocessor, the identification of HIV, the cloning of Dolly, the completion of the Human Genome Project, and the discovery of the Higgs Boson. Each element emerges in layered High Relief, forming a visual timeline where biology, physics, medicine, technology, and space exploration converge into a single narrative of human ambition. The obverse of the coin presents the Public Seal of Niue at the center, encircled by a continuous DNA motif symbolizing the code of life and the continuity of discovery. Around it, engraved segments list the scientific milestones with their corresponding years, forming a chronological ring of achievement. Also on the obverse are the inscriptions: "NIUE" - the issuing country, "5 DOLLARS" - the face value, "Ag 999" - the Silver fineness, and "2026" - the year of issue.
