There were only 200,020 New Zealand 1949 Crowns minted and most of the surviving coins are in the hands of collectors. There is no indication that any substantial numbers of them have turned up in Afghanistan.
There were 35,043,0000 New Zealand one cent coins minted for issue in 1974.
As with many countries, New Zealand withdrew the 1 and 2 cent coins due to the fact that they had no purchasing power, which subsequently made them expensive to produce. They had effectively become useless coins. The New Zealand 1 and 2 cent coins were demonetised on the 30th of April, 1990 and are no longer considered legal tender. The New Zealand 5 cent coin was also withdrawn, and demonetised for the same reasons on the 1st of November, 2006 and are no longer considered legal tender. NOTE - All New Zealand 1, 2 and 5 cent coins are redeemable for face value at the Reserve Bank of New Zealand.
Therre were 140.2 million 2006 New Zealand 10 cent coins struck for general circulation.
The Canberra mint can produce up to 2 million coins per day.
As was the international trend in the mid to late 20th century, many countries looked towards re-evaluating their currencies and changing over to a decimal system of currency. New Zealand set up a committee in 1959 to assess their currency requirements and in 1963, announced that New Zealand would change to a decimal system of currency based on the New Zealand Dollar consisting of 100 cents. The Decimal Currency Act of 1964 prescribed the designs and sizes of the new New Zealand coins and banknotes, and the New Zealand decimal currency was introduced on the 10th of July, 1967. Since then, the 1 and 2 cent coins were deemed to be no longer an economically viable coin to produce and were subsequently withdrawn and demonetised on the 30th of April, 1990. They are no longer considered to be legal tender. On the 11th of February, 1991, new One and Two Dollar coins were introduced to replace the One and Two Dollar banknotes, coins being much more durable than low denomination high turnover banknotes. The 5 cent coins were deemed to be no longer an economically viable coin to produce and were subsequently withdrawn and demonetised on the 1st of November, 2006. They are no longer considered to be legal tender. On the 31st of July, 2006, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand introduced smaller and lighter plated steel 10, 20 and 50 cent coins. The older coins were withdrawn and demonetised and are now, no longer legal tender. The current New Zealand coinage is a streamlined, light weight and relatively cheap to produce modern coinage which caters to New Zealands current needs. It consists of 10, 20 and 50 cent coins, and One and Two Dollar coins for general circulation. Current banknotes include the Five, Ten, Twenty, Fifty and One Hundred Dollar notes.

It was the preference at the time for British coins and stamps to depict the monarch without a crown. This included Edward VII, George V, Edward VIII, George VI and the predecimal Elizabeth II coins. The coins of many other British Empire countries such as Canada and Australia continued to show a crowned monarch, although the stamps were mostly bare headed.
The New Zealand Halfcrown coin was first minted in 1933 and last minted in 1965. There were no New Zealand Halfcrown coins minted in 1936, 1938, 1939, 1952, 1954 to 1960, and 1964. The fewest coins were minted in the following years - 1961 - 80,000 1940 - 100,800 1953 - 127,000 1944 - 180,000 It is difficult to say which is the rarest coin, since nobody knows how many there are tucked away in collections.
New Zealand's national day is called Waitangi Day, after the town in which the treaty binding New Zealand to the British Crown was signed. It is a national holiday, and since it occurs in the height of summer many will travel to a lake or park and enjoy a long weekend camp.
