Comment
The 2013 Māori Art Coin celebrates the koru as an integral part of Māori art and culture, and as a symbol of renewal. The koru is represented in the unfurling silver fern frond, which will grow into a rauponga. The surrounding artwork represents the domain of Tāne Mahuta, the God of the Forest. Tāne is depicted through a series of koru patterns and is watching over his domain, in which countless piko will grow into established ferns.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that the Maori Art - Koru design on the reverse side of the coin is a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins in the Elizabeth II series. The Koru is a traditional Maori symbol that represents new life, growth, and renewal, and it is often used in Maori art and culture. The use of this symbol on the coin not only adds a touch of cultural significance but also makes it visually striking and distinctive.
