Issued to mark the 40th anniversary of Elizabeth II's coronation, this piece was struck the same year New Zealand was quietly reassessing its constitutional relationship with the Crown following years of sweeping economic deregulation. The .917 gold specification places it in the traditional crown gold standard — the same fineness used for British sovereigns since 1817, a deliberate callback in an era when such continuity was no longer assumed.
