| Obverse description | A seated allegorical female figure, representing Commerce or Justice, occupies the central field, shown in three-quarter view facing left. She extends her left arm to hold a pair of balanced scales, symbolic of fair trade, while her right hand rests upon a large cog wheel at her side; a sailing ship appears in low relief in the left background. The figure is draped in classical robes and wears a diadem. The curved legend NEW ZEALAND arches above along the inner border, with the date 1858 positioned centrally in the lower segment, all within a continuous beaded border. |
