Detailed description
Taniwha Maori art
This unique gold coin, issued by the Bank of New Zealand in 2017 and minted by the Royal Australian Mint in a premium proof grade of 5 troy ounces (155.5 g) of 99.99% pure gold, is dedicated to Maori mythology and the mythical creature called Taniwha.
The reverse of the coin depicts the motif of Taniwha emerging from troubled waters. Taniwha is a mythical creature from Maori mythology, living in deep pools and rivers, dark caves or in the sea, especially in places with dangerous currents or high waves. These creatures are considered to be respected guardians (kaitiaki) of people and places. In some traditions, they are dangerous predatory creatures that abduct women. The rim of the reverse side is decorated with ornaments and inscriptions "KOTAHI TARA" and the denomination "ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS". The obverse bears a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by artist Ian Rank-Broadley, the inscriptions "NEW ZEALAND", "ELIZABETH II" and the year of issue "2017".
The coin comes in a luxurious wooden case engraved with Taniwha, whose eyes are decorated with the original "Paua shells" in turquoise, along with a certificate of authenticity in an extremely limited edition of only 50 pieces for the whole world!
