Somewhat unique in the collector coin world, the New Zealand Honey Bee series featured coins struck in a hexagonal shape! Appropriately, that shape reflects the honeycomb that bees are so famous for creating - and it makes this series an absolute stand out across the world.
After selling out of the 2016 coin incredibly quickly, the New Zealanders returned to the theme in 2018 with the Manuka Honey Bee and, again, sold out!
Now, in 2026, we're back! This coin, featuring the Queen Bee, pays tribute to the entire New Zeeland Honey industry, a major contributor to the well being of the entire nation.
Depicting the monarch of the colony, the Queen Bee, with her workers, this special coin is also housed in a box shaped just like the Langstroth hives that helped build a New Zealand industry.
Limited Mintage just 1200 coins.
Please allow two weeks for this to get across the ditch from NZ!
