| Additional information |
New Zealand decimalized on 10 July 1967, replacing the pound system overnight. In the lead-up to that changeover, the Royal Australian Mint in Canberra produced the new decimal coinage under contract. The "mule" designation here refers to a die pairing error — obverse and reverse dies intended for different denominations or issue years were inadvertently married during production, a not uncommon hazard when multiple denominations are struck simultaneously on a single mint floor under deadline pressure.
Specimens are rare. Most were caught before release.
