FUKUSHIMA Human Tragedies 2 Oz Silver Coin 5$ Niue 2024

The reverse of this Silver coin presents the protective helmet of a nuclear plant worker who participated in the efforts to contain the 2011 disaster. Shattered pipes, cables, and broken infrastructure reflected in its visor create a chaotic mosaic of ruins that captures the dramatic aftermath of the explosions. In the background of this apocalyptic scene, cooling towers and plant chimneys can be seen emitting thick, dark smoke, symbolizing contamination and irreversible damage. On the reverse, also the inscriptions: "FUKUSHIMA" – the name of the coin, and "11.03.2011" – the stark reminder of the tragic day. The obverse of this Silver coin shows the Public Seal of Niue, along with the inscriptions: "2024" – the year of issue, "NIUE" – the issuing country, "5 DOLLARS" – the face value, and "Ag 999" – the fineness of Silver. On the right, a dramatic rescue operation scene with fireboats directing powerful streams of water from their water cannons in the desperate attempt to cool the overheating.
