New Zealand issued its first coins in 1933. These were designed by
George Kruger-Gray. Along the way, various designs had been considered
but rejected. Designer Percy Metcalfe had originally also been
involved in the process. His art deco kiwi is a sight to behold. Have
a look at the illustrations of the designs that never made it by
