Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1998 New Zealand Platinum Proof 150 Dollars coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a cameo portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by a pattern of fern leaves and flowers. This design was created by the New Zealand Mint to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the founding of the city of Auckland, and it is not found on any other coin. The use of platinum as the metal for the coin adds an extra layer of exclusivity and rarity, making it a highly sought-after collector's item.
