Five Cents 1996, Coin from New Zealand (demonetised 2006)
CoinFive Cents 1996

The New Zealand five-cent coin was the lowest denomination coin of the New Zealand dollar from 1990 to 2006. The five-cent coin was introduced when the New Zealand dollar was introduced on 10 July 1967, replacing the New Zealand sixpence coin, which - having exactly the same dimensions - remained legal tender and in parallel use.

Coins issued in 1996 circulated for ten years before they were demonetised on 1 November 2006.
