New Zealand Mint
Founded in 1967, the New Zealand Mint is an independently owned company based in Auckland. It is the country's only privately owned mint and it was one of the first in the world to embrace the .9999 standard in gold coin purity.
Over Four Decades of Excellence
The New Zealand Mint has been producing its prestigious range of gold and silver bullion and collector's coins for over 40 years. Products like the New Zealand Mint's uncirculated Kiwi coins illustrate its commitment to quality and perfection. Design details are outstanding and .9999 gold coins and .999 silver coins issued by the mint
are eagerly snapped up by the world's most discerning bullion traders and collectors.
When the large US investment banks went through a period of crisis towards the end of the 2000s, the New Zealand Mint was the first choice for many investors who wanted a safe and secure haven for their capital. The mint is said to have done up to a month's worth of transactions every day over the course of the US bank crisis.
The New Zealand Mint Now
The New Zealand Mint continues to produce an outstanding range of premium grade bullion coins and collectors coins. Its products are valued by collectors for their exceptional and sometimes unusual design details and the mint is also known as an innovator in coloured gold and silver collector's coins which it creates under licence.
