| Reverse description | A photographic-style portrait of a youthful Queen Elizabeth II is rendered in high relief at the centre of the polished gold field, commemorating the 95th anniversary of her birth. To the right of the portrait, a royal crown device appears above the bold inscription '95th BIRTHDAY'. Stylised silver fern fronds flank the central design on either side, evoking New Zealand's national symbol. The legend 'QUEEN ELIZABETH II' arcs along the upper rim, while 'TEN DOLLARS' is inscribed across the lower portion of the field. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark Elizabeth II's 95th birthday in April 2021, the same year Prince Philip died — meaning the commemorative calendar that year was unusually crowded with royal occasions. New Zealand's gold commemorative program has long leaned on the Royal Mint's production infrastructure, though issues at this weight and fineness are struck in limited runs and rarely see secondary-market movement outside of dedicated Commonwealth collector circuits.
