What is the lowest value New Zealand coin?

Answer 1

Coins rolls as packaged and distributed by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand contain (current) coins as follows -

10 cents- 50 coins per roll - total Five Dollars

20 cents- 25 coins per roll - total Five Dollars

50 cents- 20 coins per roll - total Ten Dollars

Answer 2

Depending on the year of the coin, the denomination, the metal they are made from, the condition, the mintmark and whether of not they are Proof or general circulation coins, old New Zealand pre-decimal coins could be worth anything from a Dollar to a few hundred Dollars (NZD).

You need to specify the year and the denomination of the coin and any distinguishing features of the coin. All New Zealand coins will have a date on them.

Check both sides of the coin and the edge carefully for the necessary information, a typo can make a lot of difference to the answer.

If you cannot determine the denomination, specify what the coin is made from or what colour it appears to be, the design on the reverse and the diameter of the coin.

Please avoid the use of abbreviations unless that is how it is inscribed on the coin.

The inscription DEI GRATIA FID DEF and variations of it (DEI GRA FID DEF - D G F D, etc.) do not identify the coin, they are part of the impressive title of the British Monarch, whoever he or she might be at the time. All New Zealand coins will have the British King or Queen on the obverse.

Please submit a new question with the necessary information.
