Niue, a country in free association with New Zealand, uses only one official legal tender currency, which is the New Zealand dollar.{{cite book|first1=Jan|last1=Gyllenbok|title=Encyclopaedia of Historical Metrology, Weights, and Measures|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=IJJVDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA1853|publisher=Birkhäuser|date=12 April 2018|isbn=9783319667126|via=Google Books}}

Before the creation of the New Zealand dollar in 1967, Niue was a user of the New Zealand pound and its very early commemorative coins of Niue were in pound or shilling increments.

Niue first began issuing coins in 1966. These have been mostly bullion and non-circulating base metal commemorative issues. They are acceptable as legal tender within Niue, though unlikely to be found anywhere on the island.
