| Reverse description | Right-facing portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, rendered in a style consistent with her later official coinage effigies, flanked by the heraldic supporters of the Royal Arms: a crowned lion passant guardant to the left and a rearing unicorn to the right. The inscription QUEEN ELIZABETH II appears above the portrait, with the Royal motto DIEU ET MON DROIT inscribed below, evoking the continuity of the British Crown across two reigns. |

| Additional information |
New Zealand's transition from Elizabeth II to Charles III coinage began in earnest after the Royal Mint issued formal effigy guidance in 2023, with Jody Clark's portrait of Charles — first cut for UK coinage in 2015 — adopted across Commonwealth realms on a rolling basis. New Zealand was among the slower adopters, meaning transitional pieces acknowledging both reigns carry genuine documentary interest for Commonwealth series collectors. The 62.2g weight places this squarely in the two-troy-ounce bullion format that the New Zealand Treasury has leaned on heavily since the 2010s for its annual silver programs.
