2024 Kiwi 5oz Silver Proof Coin

We are grateful to offer this 2024 Kiwi 5oz Silver Proof Coin from the New Zealand Post Office.

Roroa in the Rotoiti Nature Recovery Project (RNRP) are protected by the work of the Department of Conservation and a group of volunteers named the Friends of Rotoiti (FOR). It’s an excellent example of a successful collaboration involving the government and a local community. The work that FOR does to protect roroa includes controlling rats, stoats, possums and feral cats by setting traps and monitoring for pest presence. It also monitors kiwi and other native animals such as kākā, lizards and robin populations in the RNRP territory.

  • Minted from 0.999 silver
