The Hawksbill turtle (Taku) is native to the warm, inviting waters of the southern Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, and the Indian Ocean. Each year, these turtles migrate to the northern coast of the North Island of New Zealand, as well as some surrounding islands in the Pacific. The Hawksbill uses the warm, shallow waters in the area for breeding. Unfortunately, the Hawksbill turtle has been hunted extensively by mankind for its brightly colored and patterned shell. Today, there are roughly 3,000 Hawksbill turtles that call the island of Fiji home. In recognition of their existence in the vital ecosystems of Fiji, the government commissioned the 2013 5 oz. Taku is the regional name that is used for the Hawksbill turtle. Silver Coin is a stunning addition to any collection. The coin features a beautiful Hawksbill Turtle (Taku) designed front and a mirrored back with the FIJI Coat of Arms. It weights 5 oz troy and is. The coin was minted for Fiji by New Zealand in 2013 and is a must-have for any coin collector. The year of minting and country of origin make it a great item for collectors interested in coins from different countries.
