The venerable owl of Athena was long associated with the Greek goddess in the ancient world. The people of Athens and other city-states in Greece worshipped the goddess and viewed the owl as a symbol of Athena’s wisdom. A bust of Athena eventually appeared on Greek silver coins known as tetradrachms. The coin had the equivalent value of four drachmae. The bust of Athena debuted on the coins in 510 BCE and was actively struck through 38 BCE. On the reverse of those original coins, the owl of Athena was featured.

On the obverse side of 2021 Niue Silver Athena Owl Stackable Coins is a bust of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is featured here in right-profile relief in a design that was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley. This bust of the Queen includes a depiction of the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara on her head. This design has featured on the obverse of Niuean coins since 1999.

The reverse field of the 2021 1 oz Niue Silver Athena Owl Stackable Coin comes with a depiction of the owl of Athena. The virgin Goddess of Wisdom, Athena became associated with the owl because of the bird’s existing symbolism and association with knowledge and wisdom. The owl is featured in left-profile relief with two large eyes. Both sides of the coin have a stackable rim design that consists of alternating raised-lowered ledges to ensure easy stacking.
