initial coin in the Kiwi Treasures Collection


The coin reverse depicts, in three-dimensional relief, two famous New Zealand symbols: the kiwi realized with a reverse proof effect and kowhai branches which have been realized with a polished effect. The kowhai tree is a small, woody legume tree native to New Zealand. The name kowhai comes from the Maori word for yellow—a reference to the color of the flower. The blooms of the kowhai are widely regarded as being New Zealand's national flower.
