The island nation of Niue has one of the fastest growing portfolios of silver and gold coins struck in its name. Produced primarily by the New Zealand Mint, there are other collections emerging for this tiny nation in the South Pacific. Among them is the exciting new Athenian Owl stackable coin. The 2017 1 oz Niue Silver Athena Owl Coin is available to you online today from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Based upon the Owl of Athena, these 2017 Niue Silver Athena Owl coins are a product of SilverTowne, and have several unique design features. First and foremost, the background field on both sides of the coins include a hammered finish that gives the silver coins a unique, ancient appearance.
Secondarily, the coins all have an outer-rim design on the obverse and reverse face of alternating raised and sunken surfaces. These features of the design interlock so you can easily stack your 2017 1 oz Niue Silver Athena Owl Coins together.
All Silver Athena Owl coins in this product listing are in BU condition. Coins in BU condition have no signs of wear and tear, though you may notice a range of detracting flaws that include breaks in the luster, spotted surfaces, and contact marks as a result of striking the blanks during production.
On the obverse of all 2017 1 oz Niue Silver Athena Owl Coins you’ll find the familiar right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. In use on commonwealth coins since her ascension to the throne of England in 1952, Her Majesty’s portrait on these coins comes from Ian Rank-Broadley, and was designed in 1998 as the fourth-generation depiction.
The reverse of the Silver Athena Owl Coins includes the famous depiction of an Athenian Owl, or the creature otherwise known as an Owl of Athena. The owl was, in Greek mythology, the traditional partner accompanying the goddess of wisdom, Athena. Over thousands of years, the owl became known as a symbol of knowledge and wisdom because of its association with Athena.
SilverTowne is a private minting facility in the United States, with its headquarters in Indiana since it was founded in 1949 by Leon Hendrickson. What started out as a small operation out of a cigar box under a lunch counter has grown into a multi-million dollar business striking rounds, coins, and bars for various entities.

"Love these coins! I bought a few as gifts for the family, my mother loves owls; so these are perfect. The detail, the quality, all superb!"
"I was pleasantly surprised in the detail and luster of these coins. The price is presently below that of a 1 oz round. I will be buying more in the near future. JMB also had my order to me in 3 business days AGAIN! Thanks JMB!"
"These timeless coins are interesting and come in the ancient Athena Owl style with Greek letters. I wish all my stacker coins were in this beautiful condition. They arrived with no scuffs, no scratches, no milk spots, and not even a pin mark. I already ordered more, and I am looking forward to another shipment of these MINT coins. I hope you can get these spotless, mint Athena Owls added to your stack, too."
"Great coin. Interesting and well struck. Surprised that it has the lowest price over spot. Hope that continues"
"This has become one of our favorite offerings from JM Bullion. I believe it has the lowest cost over spot for a 0.999 minted coin. The design and finish looks better in person than in the picture; the eyes are convex/mirrored giving it an unusual 'look'. Doing a quick online search and you'll find it has a very similar design to the original coins and their reproductions for jewelry. Then add the stacking ridges and this is one unique coin. Although the mini-monster box of 100 is heavy card stock and tubes, it is still nice to have it show up as one sealed unit. Combine all of this and you'll see why we gave it 5 stars."
"Just ordered a few... I've admired the original ancient coins with the owl, but they are way out of my range. These are almost as cool but priced right! Now I've got Owls, Kangaroos, Bison, Eagles, Horse, Turtles, etc., etc... Those Noah's Arks are looking like a good addition to the stack. ;-)"
"This is a great and unique coin at fantastic value!"
"Can't beat these for value and quality. Wow. Really impressed when I got these and had a look in person! Already ordered another tube. I hope they keep making these for the long term."
