How do you tell the difference between an English 1937 Halfcrown coin and a 1937 New Zealand Halfcrown coin?
It is fairly easy. Apart from the dimensions, they are nothing alike. The British coin has GEORGIVS VI D : G : BR : OMN : REX on the front. The New Zealand coin has GEORGE VI KING EMPEROR on the front. British coins do not have the country name on them. The New Zealand coin has NEW ZEALAND on the reverse.

What are the denominations of current New Zealand banknotes?
Currently there would be the new 10, 20 and 50 cent coins and the 1 and 2 Dollar coins. The 1 and 2 cent coins were demonetised on the 30th of April, 1990 and the 5 cent coin was also withdrawn and demonetised on the 1st of November, 2006. The 1, 2 and 5 cents coins are no longer considered legal tender. Since the 31st of July, 2006, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand began introducing a smaller, lighter coin to replace the existing 10, 20 and 50 cent coins. The new 10, 20 and 50 cent coins are made of plated steel. The 10 cent coin has a copper appearance and the 20 and 50 cent coins have a silver appearance. The 1 and 2 Dollar coins are made of aluminium-bronze and have a gold appearance and remain unchanged from the pre-2006 design. The 5 cent coin was withdrawn from circulation at the same time and the old 5, 10, 20 and 50 cent coins are no longer legal tender, although they are redeemable for face value at the Reserve Bank of New Zealand. There is a range of non-circulating $5, $10, $20 and $150 coins that would be considered legal tender, but because their actual value is significantly greater than their face value, only a fool would use them.
