Aidan Work Banned New Zealand 306 Posts	Posted 08/15/2006 9:40 pm Grendelfreak,only the 3d.,6d.,& 1/- are .500 fine silver. The 2/- is a cupro-nickel coin that we were able to find in change as a 20c. coin.The rest of them are just general run of the mill coins,even though the 5c. is being pulled from circulation. RenaL will like these.He can show them off to his family & friends over there in Turkey. Aidan. Report this Post to the Staff

[:p] New Zealand switched from .500 silver to Cupronickel in 1947 - so anything before that is silver. Mintages and CV, VF condition for predecs, EF for decimals: 1952 penny: 10.8 million, 50¢ 1945 3d: 2.5 million, 50¢ 1941 6d: 0.44 million, $5 1933 shilling: 3 million, $2 1948 florin: 1.75 million, 50¢ 1969 2¢: 20.5 million, 15¢ 1972 5¢: 20 million, 10¢ 1982 10¢: 18 million, 10¢. If I've read any of the dates wrong, please correct me. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.
