Bounty Islands New Zealand 10 dollars Royal Albatross Bird rectangular coin 2017

The 2017 Bounty Islands 10 Dollars Royal Albatross rectangular silver coin honors one of nature’s most graceful ocean wanderers — the Diomedea epomophora. Struck in brilliant proof quality, it combines modern design with natural beauty. The obverse displays a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “BOUNTY ISLANDS,” and the year “2017,” symbolizing the link between New Zealand’s remote territories and the Crown. The reverse captures the majesty of the Royal Albatross with exceptional realism: a large close-up of its distinctive head and curved beak dominates the foreground, while a second bird soars above the sea in elegant flight. The denomination “10 DOLLARS” and the scientific name Diomedea epomophora complete the refined composition. Issued for the Bounty Islands, a pristine marine sanctuary, this coin celebrates both wildlife conservation and numismatic craftsmanship in a rare rectangular format.
