New Zealand's 'stunning' $5 note named the best banknote of the year
New Zealand's 'stunning' $5 bill has been named the best banknote of the year. The bill was picked out of 40 notes from 20 different countries. This award is given annually by the International Bank Note Society, who said that out of the 150 bills "over three dozen" were eligible for nomination, including Sweden’s 20 kronor note, Russia’s 100 rouble note, and Kazakhstan’s 20,000 tenge note. But the Society said New Zealand’s $5 polymer note was a “clear winner”.
What do you think of the design?
Banjo and cranky here it is on a clearer background. It's a collection of NZ flora and fauna surrounded by a frame of fern
This pic shows it clearer. Thought it could maybe be their coat of arms.

No it's not their coat of arms this is
The coat of arms of New Zealand is the official symbol of New Zealand. The initial coat of arms was granted by King George V on 26 August 1911, and the current version was granted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1956.
