This 1953 New Zealand sixpence is a mid-20th-century piece from our pre-decimal coinage era, struck in copper-nickel. It captures circulating coinage from the early reign of Elizabeth II, issued before New Zealand decimalised its currency in 1967. A compact, lustrous addition for collectors focusing on mid-century NZ coinage and currency reform history.
