The person on the front of the New Zealand One Hundred Dollar note is New Zealand born, Lord Ernest Rutherford of Nelson (1871-1937).

Lord Rutherford was internationally recognised as the "Father of the Atom" and, for his work on naturally occurring radioactivity, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1908.

The "coin" on the New Zealand One Hundred Dollar note is Lord Rutherford's Nobel Prize Medal overlaid with a graph representing the results of his investigations.

What is the value of a New Zealand Two Dollar note?

There were two variants of the New Zealand Two Dollar note. A New Zealand Two Dollar note (Issue 3 [1967 - 1981] - Queen facing to the left)(depending on the Chief Cashier and serial number), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch anything from $35 to $100 NZD. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch anything from $6 to $30 NZD. A New Zealand Two Dollar note (Issue 4 [1981 - 1991] - Queen facing forward)(depending on the Chief Cashier and serial number), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch anything up to $15 NZD. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch anything from $5 to $7 NZD. New Zealand Two Dollar notes were last issued in 1991. A Two Dollar coin replaced them.
