Comment
Listed by Krause SCWC as Copper-nickel Gilt but in fact, the RBNZ CoA states 'copper/zinc alloy coated with 24 carat pure gold'.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of materials. The coin is made of a copper/zinc alloy, which is then plated with gold. This creates a striking visual effect, with the gold plating giving the coin a luxurious and high-end appearance. The use of a non-traditional material like copper/zinc alloy also adds to the coin's distinctiveness and makes it stand out from other coins.
