The Reserve Bank of New Zealand is releasing a legal tender colored Anzac circulating commemorative coin to honor the spirit of Anzac that was formed at Gallipoli 100 years ago. One million of the special 50-cent coins have been minted and color stamped by the Royal Canadian Mint, using a special high-speed pad printing process which generates sharper, more detailed coin imagery than traditional inkjet printing. The Anzac coin is the first circulating coin in the world to utilize the revolutionary printing technology. This video footage was supplied by Royal Canadian Mint.

This issue is notable because it is the first circulating commemorative issued in NZ since 1949(if I have the right year)

I placed my order today, a 20 coin roll, plus 5 loose coins today from NZ Post for about 12 bucks USD shipped! What a deal!

@maththeriley Thanks ..I just submitted a similar order. I actually stopped buying from NZ post some years ago when they restruck some proof coins ( in sets) to cash in on collector demand. Although this issue will never be hugely valuable( heaps will be buying) its worth having some mint examples.
