2015 New Zealand 50c Spirit of ANZAC – Uncirculated Coins
A truly historic release and one of New Zealand's most significant modern circulating commemorative coins.
These uncirculated 2015 New Zealand 50-cent Spirit of ANZAC coins, issued to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the ANZAC spirit.
✨ Why this release is special: 🇳🇿 New Zealand's first-ever coloured circulating coin 🎖️ Features an Australian and New Zealand soldier standing back-to-back in remembrance, framed by symbolic silver ferns. 🦈 The striking Māori Mangōpare (Hammerhead Shark) pattern represents strength, courage and determination. 🌏 Minted and colour-applied by the Royal Canadian Mint using advanced high-speed pad-printing technology. 🏆 Winner of the 2015 International Association of Currency Affairs (IACA) Best New Circulating Coin award. 🔢 Strictly limited to 1,000,000 coins—a symbolic mintage representing New Zealand's population in 1914, of which nearly 10% served during World War I.
Despite its stunning coloured design, the coin retains the exact specifications of a standard 50-cent piece, allowing it to circulate and function in vending machines and coin counters.
Whether you're an ANZAC collector, modern coin enthusiast, or simply appreciate meaningful commemorative designs, this sealed roll is a fantastic addition to any collection.
