During the Renaissance, alchemists adopted the phoenix as a symbol of transformation and the achievement of the philosopher’s stone. The bird’s fiery rebirth was seen as a representation of chemical transformation and spiritual enlightenment. This period also saw the phoenix appear frequently in heraldry and royal iconography, where it represented the divine right of rulers and the perpetual nature of monarchy.

On the obverse of the 2025 Niue Gold Phoenix Coin is a portrait of King Charles III. This left-profile relief, crafted by Jody Clark, is the first-generation design for Niuean coinage and features His Majesty without a crown, emphasizing a refined and contemporary image.

The reverse of 2025 1/10 oz Gold Phoenix Coins features the legendary bird with flowing, elegant feathers. A universal symbol of immortality and rebirth, the phoenix has been celebrated in various cultures for centuries. Artists often render the bird with vibrant plumage in shades of red, orange, and gold, inspired by the flames from which it rises, and sometimes add purples and blues for depth. Its long neck, elaborate tail, and crest of feathers highlight its extraordinary beauty.
