Description
Introduced in 2010, the New Zealand Hawksbill Turtle Coin has been issued for two different nations in its decade-long history. Originally known as the Fiji Taku, the series has been officially known as the Niue Hawksbill since 2014.
Coin Highlights:
6th issue of the Fiji Taku Hawksbill Turtle Coin! Contains 2 Troy oz of .999 pure silver in BU condition. The face value of $2 is fully backed by the Fiji government. On the obverse is Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse features a hawksbill turtle swimming in shallow waters. From 2010 to 2013, the New Zealand Mint issued the Hawksbill Turtle Coin as the Fiji Taku. The coin had the same design as it does now, with some minor exceptions. The most obvious difference in the turtle design was the use of the word TAKU on the reverse instead of the word TURTLE. In the final year of issue as the Fiji Taku, the coin did not use Queen Elizabeth II’s effigy, but instead featured the Fijian coat of arms.
