The New Zealand two-cent coin was the second smallest denomination coin of the New Zealand dollar from the currency's introduction in 1967 to its demonetisation, along with the one-cent coin, in 1990. Its reverse featured two kowhai flowers, considered emblematic of New Zealand. Coins issued in 1978 were in mint sets only (not intended for circulation); any that were released would have circulated for 12 years before they were demonetised on 1 May 1990. | ||||||
