10 Cents 2009 - Elizabeth II (4th Portrait)


Description : 10 Cents - Elizabeth II
Mintage : 30,000,000
Country : New Zealand

This coin has minted by New Zealand during 2006 to 2011.The size of the 10¢ piece was too close to that of the dollar - so close, in fact, that it has been possible on occasion to put two 10c pieces in a parking meter together and receive one dollar worth of parking time, or jam the meter and make parking free anyway.  The Reverse of this coin is showing the A Māori koruru, or carved head. It's a artifacts and carvings of the Maori of New Zealand, It is sometimes assumed that every cut in a piece of Maori carving must have a meaning, but in fact probably much of it is purely decorative. And, the Obverseyou can see The head of the Elizabeth II Queen in a 4th portrait. And it is Lettering: NEW ZEALAND ELIZABETH II.
