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. 2006 is the last year when five cent coins were struck; they were issued in mint sets only and none for circulation; the five cent denomination was demonetised later the same year, on 1 November 2006. | ||||||
