New Zealand Post, rather than the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, issued this piece — a distinction that matters. Coins bearing the New Zealand Post name are legal tender in name only; they are commemorative issues sold at a premium and never intended for circulation. The 75th anniversary of the end of World War II in 2020 prompted a wave of similar releases across Commonwealth nations, many timed to coincide with VE Day and VP Day observances that were ultimately scaled back or cancelled due to COVID-19 restrictions.
New Zealand lost roughly 11,900 personnel during the war — a significant figure for a population that stood below two million at the time.
