Beschrijving keerzijde Dynamic naturalistic depiction of Mauisaurus haasti, an extinct New Zealand elasmosaurid plesiosaur, shown in three-quarter perspective swimming diagonally across the field with its elongated neck outstretched, jaws open to reveal prominent serrated dentition, and four paddle-like flippers extended. Five small fish are rendered in fine relief in the lower right field beneath the creature. The legend 'MAUISAURUS' arcs along the upper rim, and the denomination 'ONE DOLLAR' is inscribed along the lower rim, all set against a deeply mirrored proof field.

Aanvullende informatie

Mauisaurus haasti was a plesiosaur recovered from Late Cretaceous marine deposits in the South Island's Marlborough region, and for decades held the record as the longest-known plesiosaur globally — estimates reaching 20 meters, largely owing to an exceptionally elongated neck. The 2010 New Zealand dollar series issued through the Reserve Bank drew on the country's unusually rich Mesozoic marine fossil record, which had been the subject of serious paleontological attention since the 1870s when Julius von Haast first described the type specimen.
