Obverse

Below it, you will find the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. It was created for the Royal Mint of England in 1998 and has featured on coins across the Commonwealth in the two decades since.

Reverse

On the reverse field of 2016 Niue Approach of the Wise Men 5-Pointed Star 1 oz Silver Coins is a desert setting with three men riding on camels. The trio follows a bright star shining in the sky overhead. As the Christian bible tells it, these wise men were heading to the small town of Bethlehem to greet the newborn King of the Jews, Jesus Christ. The five-pointed star engraved on this side of the coin is also inset on the obverse.

History

The story of the Three Wise Men is one of the central elements in the tale of the birth of Jesus Christ. These men were, according to the Bible, guided across the desert by a bright star to bring gifts to the newborn babe. However, accounts of the era only note that three gifts were delivered. Some Eastern Christian sects actually believe 12 wise men arrived to greet the birth of Jesus.
