Hello

What is the difference between the NZ one penny 1945 "Burnished" and the NZ one penny 1945 standart?

You can place images here on the forum these two types of one penny?

Thank you.

Welcome! I think a burnished coin is more polished, giving it a prooflike appearance.

The "Burnished" penny was struck on darkened planchets to discourage hoarding of normal bright shiny coins. Anyone familiar with English coins will know there are lots of examples of this practice. As these NZ coins were struck in England it is believed the planchets were mixed up and intended for English coins.
