A wee piece of Kiwi nostalgia inspired by retired New Zealand currency. Laser carving enhances the detail of each coin bringing them to life in a way not seen on the actual coins. Each coin comes beautifully packaged ready to gift or just to spoil yourself. Our coins measure approximately 190mm diameter with a depth of 18mm. This can vary due to wood variations, but will not be less than stated.Using solid New Zealand Rimu sourced from local timber merchants enables shipping to most countries, (you will need to check individual countries requirements before shipping).Is there a date that holds significance to you?
