Crafted with an open-ended adjustable design for a comfortable, flexible fit.
Struck during the reign of King George V, the Half Crown was one of New Zealand's most iconic silver coins. The obverse bears the coronated portrait of George V with the legend GEORGE V KING EMPEROR. The reverse showcases the crowned New Zealand coat of arms, flanked by intricate Māori-inspired koru scroll engravings — a design unique to New Zealand coinage of the era.
