Lithuania Mints 1oz 999 silver coin depicts an illustration based on the Brothers Grimm’s charming and instructive story of Hansel and Gretel. 

The coin depicts the fateful moment in the fairy tale when wandering in the woods, a hungry and tired brother and sister suddenly discover the wicked witch’s house, and when they see what it is made of, they start eating it. 

The obverse of the coin bears the stylized coat of arms of Niue. At the bottom of the coin crossed katoua fighting sticks can be seen – the symbol of the Niue island, and above them is the island’s motto ‘atua Niue tukulagi’. The obverse is also decorated with biscuits in various patterns, echoing the motif seen in the reverse illustration.
