HAWAII

MAUI TRADE DOLLAR

‘I’IWI HAWAIIAN HONEYCREEPER BIRD

WITH PAPAYA TREE AND FRUIT

2010 Copper-Nickel Coin Uncirculated

Maui, the second largest of the Hawaiian Islands has long been popular with tourists because of its gorgeous scenery, beautiful tropical beaches and numerous cultural activities. Each year, the Maui Chamber of Commerce issued a trade dollar that is good in trade at participating merchants throughout the island during the year that it is issued. Most of the coins were kept as souvenirs rather being turned in for redemption at the end of the year, which helped raise funds for educational projects on the island. Over the years the series became increasing popular with collectors.

For 2010, the subject shown on the front is the ‘I’iwi bird whose feathers have long been used on ceremonial Hawaiian capes and helmets.  The front reads “MAUI, NO KA OI, 2010.”
