New Zealand Kiwi Silver Dollar

And here's the other surprise I eluded to on the Zambian Silver Elephant thread.

Now, I spent more on this puppy than I did the elephants (not combined!). Let's just say I spent less than it would cost to get it from the New Zealand Mint, and they are sold out of the 2004. As I understand it, the mintage for the 2004 was somewhere between 5000-10000, so I don't feel too bad paying what I did for this one.

Still has that funny-looking chick on the obverse, though (or is that Ronald McDonald?)...

Oh no!! Not another series that I have to start buying!

Beautiful

Is that the way a kiwi looks or has that one supposedly been pecking on a porcupine?

New Zealand version of a doodoo bird?

Very cute ... and my conure is named Kiwi!

Too bad they seem to be pretty pricey...

Beautiful coin! I have been doing some Scroogle searches and 2004 is by far the prettiest coin.

Great score, eye of liberty.
