NGC MintCertified™ FIRST30™ Sealed Tube Program
The MintCertified™ FIRST30™ designation ensures that the coins inside were delivered from the mint during the initial 30-day release window. Tubes remain sealed and secured with tamper-evident labeling.
As long as the MintCertified™ FIRST30™ tube remains unopened and untampered, the coins inside remain eligible for direct submission to NGC for grading with either the FIRST30™ or Early Releases® designation. Opening the tube will permanently disqualify the coins from these special release designations.
Importantly, the FIRST30™ eligibility does not expire, provided the seal remains intact.
The Design
The obverse features the Public Seal of Niue, along with the coin’s face value and year of mintage. As a self-governing island nation in free association with New Zealand, Niue authorizes this legal tender silver issue.
The reverse showcases the powerful Roaring Lion design — widely recognized as the Lion of Judah — crowned and marked with the Aleph Tav symbol (את). A hidden Scriptural message appears within the crown band, continuing the signature element of the Truth Series.
The detailed lion portrait stands against a regal, reflective floral-patterned background that enhances depth and visual contrast. Along the rim, inscriptions confirm the coin’s weight, purity, and metal content.
