Niue, a country in free association with New Zealand, uses only one official legal tender currency, which is the New Zealand dollar.[1]
Before the creation of the New Zealand dollar in 1967, Niue was a user of the New Zealand pound[1] and its very early commemorative coins of Niue were in pound or shilling increments.
Niue first began issuing coins in 1966. These have been mostly bullion and non-circulating base metal commemorative issues. They are acceptable as legal tender within Niue, though unlikely to be found anywhere on the island.
