The reverse of the coin presents the painting "The Night Cafè" surrounded by a beautiful Gilded frame. It is an oil painting created in 1888, during the last year of van Gogh's life. It depicts a dimly lit café interior in Arles, France, with various figures and objects portrayed in bold, vibrant colors. Van Gogh used his signature expressive brushwork, creating a sense of movement and energy. The colors are intense and contrasting, with yellows, blues, and reds dominating the scene. The central figure, a lonely figure seated at a table, is believed to represent the artist himself. The obverse of the coin features the Coat of Arms of Niue and the inscriptions: "2023" – the year of issue,"1 DOLLAR" – the face value and "Ag 999 1 Oz" - the purity of the Silver and its weight.
