The Design

The obverse design stamps Raphael Maklouf’s effigy of Queen Elizabeth II through a left-profile bust of a young adult crowned Queen.

The inscriptions “QUEEN ELIZABETH II,” “NIUE TWO DOLLARS,” “2017”, and “2 OZ 999 FINE SILVER” surround Her Majesty’s portrait and inform the coin’s legal tender, face value, year of issuance, weight, purity, and metal content.

The biblical scene Gustave Duré portrays on this reverse design describes the moment Jesus calms the sea while sailing through a storm with his apostles on a fishing boat. The design shows Jesus with a halo over his head and confident posture while his companions despair with the high tide. The only engraving on this side refers to the coin’s name, “JESUS CALMS THE SEA,” at the bottom.

The absence of limiting rims in these coins allows the entire usage of the surface to imprint the reverse design. The antique shadow, allied with the dark luster from the proof finish, emphasizes the aspect of ancientness and highlights the most intricate design details.

The Biblical Series debuted in 2015, promising a complete series of 60 two-ounce coins. The “Jesus Calms the Sea” corresponds to the 15th strike of the series released in 2017. Each reverse side showcases a famous scene described in the Bible and designed by the renowned French artist Gustave Duré.

The Packaging
