Comment

From 2010 the 20 cent coins included in the BU & Proof Sets have been struck at the Royal Dutch Mint. (Except for the Unofficial BU Sets of 2014 & 2015 which were struck at the Royal Canadian Mint). They are different to the circulation coins in that they are non-magnetic being made from copper-nickel instead of nickel-plated steel and have a different weight.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by New Zealand artist, Pukaki. This is the fourth portrait of the Queen to appear on New Zealand coinage and was introduced in 2010. The coin also has a non-magnetic property, which sets it apart from other coins made of similar materials.
