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. In 2005, five cent coins were issued in mint sets only and no circulation coins were struck; they were demonetised the next year, on 1 November 2006. | ||||||
