Obverse
On the obverse of 2025 Proof Colorized Niue Richter Scale 90th Anniversary Silver Coins, you will see a left-profile portrait of King Charles III without a crown. This effigy of His Majesty was created by Jody Clark.
Reverse
The reverse of the 2025 1 oz Proof Colorized Richter Scale 90th Anniversary Silver Coin shows cracked earth combined with the familiar lines of a Richter Scale reading. Even though scientists now use moment magnitude for most measurements, the phrase Richter Scale continues to appear widely in popular culture and news coverage.
History
Richter designed his scale while working at the California Institute of Technology. The system used a logarithmic approach, so each whole-number rise equaled ten times the amplitude and roughly 32 times the energy release. Although originally calibrated for Southern California earthquakes, the scale proved valuable for comparing quakes anywhere.
