2016 New Zealand Annual Proof Coin Set – Queen Elizabeth II 90th Birthday

The 2016 New Zealand Annual Proof Coin Set is a limited-edition collector’s set released to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s 90th Birthday.

This beautifully presented set features proof versions of New Zealand’s decimal currency coins, along with the 1oz silver proof Queen Elizabeth II – 90th Birthday coin. Each coin is uniquely dated 2016, making this set a special collectible marking an important royal milestone.

The Queen Elizabeth II 90th Birthday coin features a historic image of the Duke and Duchess of York, later King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, holding their daughter Princess Elizabeth as she sleeps in her christening gown. The image is recreated using a minted photo technique, giving it the appearance of a vintage photograph. It is framed by detailed high-relief gold plating featuring New Zealand’s iconic pōhutukawa flowers.

With a worldwide mintage of only 1,000 sets, this annual proof coin set is a desirable addition for collectors of New Zealand coins, royal commemoratives, and limited-mintage proof releases.
