Meticulously crafted from 1oz of 0.999 fine silver, this coloured proof coin showcases vibrant details and exceptional craftsmanship. Designed by the renowned artist Dave Burke from Tauranga, New Zealand, it is a true testament to artistry and cultural significance. With a low worldwide limited mintage of just 1,000, the Mangopare coin is a rare and unique addition to any collection, embodying strength, resilience, and natural beauty. About Mangōpare The graphic representation of the mangōpare is extensively utilized in various contexts and situations within te ao Māori (the Māori world) and te ao Whānui (the wider population). Designer Dave Burke has illustrated the mangōpare surrounded by mangopare kowhaiwhai patterns. The coin features a proof finish with selective colors that evoke the shark's habitat. For the Māori, the mangōpare design is a popular element in tā moko (traditional skin tattoos), often representing a notable ancestor in one’s whakapapa (ancestry) who demonstrated dedication and effort throughout their life. The mangōpare design is also heavily used in many sporting environments, particularly on sports apparel. In this context, it is always associated with encouraging individuals and teams to give their best in the pursuit of excellence.
