Interesting fact
This coin was designed by Reginald George James Berry, a prominent New Zealand artist and sculptor, and features a unique depiction of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse side. Instead of the traditional portrait of the Queen, Berry's design features a stylized representation of Her Majesty in a more relaxed and informal pose, with a subtle smile and a sense of movement. This unique design was intended to give the coin a more modern and dynamic feel, and it has since become a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
