| Beschrijving keerzijde | The centre of the reverse displays the numeral '2' above the inscription 'DOLLARS', with the year of issue below. Surrounding this central denomination panel is a circular legend reading 'TWO HUNDRED CENTS' on the upper arc and 'ONE HUNDRED PENCE' on the lower arc, expressing the coin's value in three concurrent monetary systems. The design is framed by a plain inner circle and an outer dentillated border, presenting a clean and authoritative typographic layout typical of Victorian colonial gold coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Newfoundland's gold two-dollar piece was an unusual denominational choice — no other British North American colony produced a circulating gold coin in this value. The decision reflected Newfoundland's stubborn fiscal independence; the colony refused to join Confederation in 1867 and maintained its own currency system well into the twentieth century. These were struck at the Royal Mint in London throughout the series run, never at a Canadian facility.
Mintages were modest across all dates, with the 1865 issue being the first. The 1888 is the scarcest terminal date.
