Design of the Musicians proof coin

Obverse

On the obverse of the coin is the beautiful image of the Musicians. It was painted by one of the greatest master painters off all time: Caravaggio. lthough Caravaggio's paintings were rejected after his death because of his unusually harsh chiaroscuro and a dark background that filled the painting, he was eventually recognized as one of the founders of modern painting. Chiaroscuro is a technique used in painting, film and photography in which light-dark contrasts are depicted more strongly than they often are in reality.

Reverse

On the reverse of the coin is the image of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin is inscribed with ''Elizabeth II'' - the name of the king, ''2022'' - the year of issue, ''NIUE ISLAND'' - the country of issue and finally ''1 DOLLAR'' - the face value of the coin.
