In Australia, the coins made primarily of zinc are the 5-cent and 10-cent coins. These coins are composed of a nickel-brass alloy that contains zinc, with the 5-cent coin being 75% copper and 25% nickel, while the 10-cent coin is 65% copper, 20% nickel, and 15% zinc. Additionally, the Australian 1-cent and 2-cent coins, which are no longer in circulation, were also primarily made of bronze, which contains zinc.
If your 1971 coin is a uncirculated example it may be worth about $5.00 because the 1971 & 1972 issue coins were not included in the Uncirculated Mint sets sold from the Mint in those years.

The Mint did offer Proof and Uncirculated coins in 1971-1976 that were struck in 40% silver.
