Colored Silver coin 1$ Niue 2022 – Little Red Riding Hood

Little Red Riding Hood is a European folk tale about a little girl who meets a wolf. Literally processed by Charles Perrault, later recorded by the Brothers Grimm.
The story of a girl deceived by a wolf has been common in France and Italy since the Middle Ages. In the foothills of the Alps and in the Tyrol, the tale, known there at least since the fourteenth century, was especially popular. The contents of the basket varied: in northern Italy, the granddaughter brought fresh fish to her grandmother, in Switzerland – a head of young cheese, in the south of France – a pie and a pot of butter. Charles Perrault literary processed the folk story. That version of the fairy tale, which became a classic in modern children’s literature, was written down by the Grimm brothers. Despite the numerous variations of the tale from the Middle Ages to the present day, “Little Red Riding Hood” remains everyone’s favorite children’s story.

The coin is made in antique processing with a color image of the heroes of the fairy tale – Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf.
