Let’s immerse ourselves in the mysterious world of Asian myths and legends with the new series of coins. The coin is a non-standard rectangular shape, and black proof technology has been used. The mirror people are a race of creatures that originates in Chinese myths, legends and folklore. The best known account of their existence was documented in 1957, in the Book of Imaginary Beings by famous author Jorge Luis Borges. He tells of a race of people who lived in a dimension apart from Earth. The existence of this dimension was discovered by accident by ancient Chinese magicians, who used mirrors as a portal to connect the two dimensions.  The reverse side of the coin portrays a mirror person trying to break into our world from the mirror world. The obverse of the coin contains the stylised coat of arms of the island of Niue.
