Product Description
2015 New Zealand $1 Silver Proof Coin - Kiwi - Glow In The Dark Kiwi
Mintage: 2,500
New Zealand’s iconic kiwi once again takes centre stage as the star of this special coin issue. However, this is no ordinary kiwi coin, as the intricately detailed design hides a secret – this coin glows in the dark.
Highlights:
- Minted from 0.999 silver with selective colour
- Limited worldwide mintage of 2,500
- First New Zealand legal tender coin to use glow-in-the-dark technology
- Features New Zealand’s iconic kiwi
- Glow-in-the-dark design reflects the nocturnal nature of the kiwi
Design:
New Zealand’s kiwi is a favourite for its unique appearance and charming behaviour, but unfortunately it’s a vanishing icon. The kiwi featured on the coin, the North Island brown kiwi, is declining at a rate of nearly 4% per year, due to changes in habitat and introduced predators.
A stunning addition to any coin collection, this 1 troy oz $1 silver coin is minted from 0.999 silver and has limited worldwide mintage of just 2,500 coins. This stunning silver coin features the innovative glow-in-the-dark kiwi as well as the species name bordering the coin, framed by brilliant green New Zealand ferns.
