Kiwi 1 oz Silver Coin
With the population increasing steadily under management,
rowi have gradually been released into the hills surrounding Lake Gault since
2018 and are dispersing through their ancestral home. The removal of predators
from South Westland’s forests should mean that the rowi can continue to recover
with less intensive management. Rowi are long-lived and are thought to reach
60-80 years of age. This allows them to be slow breeders, usually laying just 1
– 2 eggs a year. Unlike most other kiwi species, both adults (the male and the
female) share incubation of the egg, as can the juveniles from previous years,
who might stay with their parents for up to 3 years.
With a proof-like finish, this coin was designed by Sacha
Lees in consultation with Te Rūnanga O Makaawhio. It features a nesting rowi
pair and their egg. One of the unique features of rowi is that the male and
female parents take turns to incubate their egg. The chicks often stay with
their family group for years. They are slow breeders and usually only lay one
egg per year. The kowhaiwhai pattern, which represents the iwi connection with
rowi, was gifted by Fayne Robinson of Te Rūnanga O Makaawhio.
This
annual coin issue celebrates Aotearoa New Zealand’s unique kiwi bird.
