The New Zealand Halfcrown coin was first minted in 1933 and last minted in 1965. There were no New Zealand Halfcrown coins minted in 1936, 1938, 1939, 1952, 1954 to 1960, and 1964.

The New Zealand Halfcrown was issued in most years from 1933 to 1965. Any collector value would depend on the year and condition of the coin.
The first New Zealand coins were issued in 1933 and included the Threepence, Sixpence, Shilling, Florin and Halfcrown coins. The Penny and Halfpenny were first issued in 1940. Did not have much much luck finding any pictures.
At the decimalisation of Britains currency in 1971, the Halfcrown converted to 12 and a half New Pence.
Such a thing does not exist. New Zealand did not mint it's own pennies until 1940. Any Pennies circulating in New Zealand prior to 1940 would have been mostly British Pennies and some Australian Pennies.
