The obverse of the 2023 Niue Silver Lost World Pompeii Coin prominently displays Niue’s Public Seal. A gracefully stylized tree takes center stage, adorned by a Niuean seashell garland and a regal crown. Flanking the emblem are two katoua, while intricate coin markings frame the emblem. Inscriptions read FIVE DOLLARS, PUBLIC SEAL OF NIUE, ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI, 2023, and AG 999.

Reverse

Turning to the reverse, the 2023 2 oz Silver Lost World Pompeii Coin captures the post-eruption scene of Mount Vesuvius in vivid detail. This colorized depiction vividly portrays the volcano’s fury, with cascading lava flowing from its core to a solemn pile of human skulls. Inscriptions include POMPEII, and LOST WORLD CITIES.

History

Located near Naples, Italy, Mount Vesuvius stands as a somma-stratovolcano with profound historical significance. It remains the sole mainland European volcano to have erupted within the past century, earning its reputation as one of the world’s most treacherous volcanoes. The eruption of 79 A.D. stands as a poignant reminder of its power, as Pompeii and neighboring settlements bore witness to its devastating force, resulting in the loss of over a thousand lives.
