  • Description:

    The New Zealand 3 Pence 1941 KM#7 XF silver coin is a numismatic treasure that carries a rich history, a distinctive design, and the distinction of being a key date in New Zealand's coinage. This coin has captured the fascination of collectors and enthusiasts alike, not only for its rarity but also for its historical significance.

    The year 1941 marked a significant period in history as the world was engulfed in World War II. During this turbulent time, New Zealand, as a member of the British Commonwealth, found itself deeply involved in the war effort. It was in this context that the New Zealand 3 Pence 1941 was minted. The obverse of the coin features the effigy of King George VI, who reigned during this period. King George VI is depicted in left-facing profile, wearing a crown and the robes of the Order of the Garter. The inscription "GEORGE VI KING EMPEROR" encircles the king's portrait, signifying his role as both monarch and emperor. On the reverse side of the coin, the numeral "3" is prominently displayed at the center, denoting the coin's value in pence. Surrounding the numeral is an intricate and ornate design consisting of fern leaves, which are symbolic of New Zealand. The year of issue, "1941," is placed below the design, serving as a historical marker of the coin's minting during a pivotal time in global history.

    One of the remarkable aspects of the New Zealand 3 Pence 1941 is its status as a key date coin. Key date coins are those with a lower mintage compared to other issues in the series, making them relatively scarce and highly sought after by collectors. The limited mintage of this coin adds to its appeal and rarity in the numismatic world. The coin was minted at the Royal Mint in London, a renowned institution known for producing coins of exceptional quality. The absence of a mintmark indicates its origin from the Royal Mint, where it underwent a meticulous minting process to ensure precise striking and high-quality production.

    Graded as XF, which stands for Extremely Fine, this coin is in excellent condition, considering its age and historical context. XF coins typically show moderate wear on the high points of the design but retain a significant amount of detail. The New Zealand 3 Pence 1941 XF silver coin maintains sharp lettering and design elements, making it a highly collectible piece.

    New Zealand is known for its stunning and diverse landscapes, which have served as the backdrop for numerous famous film productions, including "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "The Hobbit" series. New Zealand's breathtaking scenery, ranging from lush forests to rugged mountains and pristine beaches, has made it a popular destination for filmmakers and tourists alike.

    The New Zealand 3 Pence 1941 KM#7 XF silver coin is a remarkable numismatic specimen with a rich history, intricate design, and the allure of being a key date coin. Its connection to a pivotal period in global history and its scarcity in the collector's market make it a prized addition to any collection. As a representation of New Zealand's contributions during World War II and its unique natural beauty, this coin holds a special place in the world of numismatics.

“This is my third purchase from Golden Eagle and so far, all has gone well. The prices are excellent, and the packaging is clear, protective, and professional. Ordering is also very clear and professional. I was able to quickly find, select, and pay for what I was looking for.”

I was looking in 2023 for a mix of world coins and chose to order three of the one pound lots of world coins strictly due to the price. As the lowest price I was not expecting the best selection or protection, just hoping for variety. When it arrived it greatly surpassed my expectations, however, being better protected and much more varied than the other two lots of world coins I have purchased from other vendors. Apparently, others have discovered the value of this offering as I am having a very long wait to get another order in. I looked at other offerings from Golden Eagle and have found good values in two other purchases.
Product Choice
The price for coins at Golden Eagle is exceptional. They also sell a wide range of coins at all conditions they come in. I am an old-fashioned coin collector still looking for the thrill of finding something unexpected in my change or in a coin lot. Super shiny and expensive uncirculated coins are not what I am looking for. I love the feel and the story behind a coin that has been in circulation a long time. I am just happy that few others are interested in them so I can get a good price.
