Silver coin 2 Oz Paper Airplane gilded

A gold-plated silver coin in the shape of a three-dimensional paper airplane takes us back to the carefree days of our childhood.

The classroom is quiet, with only the occasional creak from a desk. Children’s fingers discreetly fold a sheet of paper torn from a exercise book – carefully, precisely, step by step – and suddenly it becomes a paper aeroplane. Seemingly ordinary, yet carefully thought out. Every fold serves a purpose; every surface plays its part. Even a little boy, with the help of this ingenious toy, can bring to life the age-old human dream of flying. Sometimes the little aeroplane flies all the way to the blackboard; other times it lands right at his feet, but that doesn’t matter. It’s not difficult to straighten out the paper, fold it again and do it better, or fold something completely different… A paper aeroplane is like childhood itself – playful and restless. Just like a paper aeroplane, childhood has its take-off, its flight, and ultimately its landing. All that remains is a memory – as light as paper wings…

The gold-plated silver coin is a faithful replica of a paper airplane – it even features the curved tip, which bears witness to repeated take-offs and landings. The coin’s specifications and the issuer’s details are inscribed in cursive script on the wings – for example, the nominal value of 2 Dollars (NZD) and the year of issue 2026. The national emblem of the issuer, the island of Niue, stands out alongside the manufacturer’s logo, which is that of Power Coin.

The coin, which has a mintage of just 199 pieces, is stored in a special transparent frame, making it look as though it is flying through the air.
