Weighing a quarter of an ounce, it is the first kiwi coin to be made from 0.9999 gold. The kōwhai branches and flowers, as well as the kiwi, are rendered in three-dimensional relief, providing a lovely tactile finish. The frosted effect of the kiwi contrasts beautifully with the polished effect of the kōwhai, resulting in a coin that displays the subjects at their beautiful best.
With a worldwide mintage limit of just 950, this coin – the first gold coin in the ‘Kiwi Treasures’ series – represents excellent value. It promises to be popular as a collectable, a gift and a memorable souvenir for visitors to New Zealand, so place your order soon.
