How old do coins need to be to be valuable?
There's no specific answer. A coin can be valuable because it's scarce or made of precious metals. Some old coins were minted in such large quantities that they're still common among collectors while other more modern coins were only made in small numbers and are worth a lot more. Even within the same date and denomination, values can differ radically. Among US coins, for example, a 1909 Lincoln cent from Philadelphia that doesn't have the designer's initials VDB can be bought for a few dollars because millions were struck. However only about 484,000 such coins that did have the designer's initials were made at San Francisco; these can be worth hundreds or thousands of dollars.

What are three coins that are no longer in production?
Many coins are no longer made. Among US coins there are half-cents, two cent and three cent coins, half dimes, double dimes, and several denominations of gold coins. Any EU state that adopted the euro no longer makes its old national coins such as lira, marks, or francs. England, Australia, and New Zealand decimalized their coins in the 1960s and 1970s so old pence, shillings, florins, half-crowns, threepence, sixpence and other coins are no longer in use.

Is the US nickel coin made of nickel?
It's actually made of 75% copper, but when it was introduced in 1866 it was one of the first US coins to have a significant amount of nickel in it. The other was a 3¢ piece. Because there were also silver 3¢ and 5¢ coins people started calling them "three cents silver", "three cents nickel", and so on. By the 1870s all except the nickel 5-cent piece had been discontinued but the old terms lived on for a while; sometimes the coins were called "five-cent nickels" which eventually was shortened to just plain "nickel".

What is the most often used coin in New Zealand today?
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand does not issue all coins in all years. The RBNZ only issues sufficient coins to keep the number of coins in circulation at what it perceives to be the required quantities. Since the old 10, 20 and 50 cent coins were withdrawn in 2006, the issue of new coins since then is as follows - 10 cent coins - 205,600,000 total issued 20 cent coins - 196,600,000 total issued 50 cent coins - 90,200,000 total issued All issues of the 1 and 2 Dollar coins are potentially still in circulation. The issue of 1 and 2 Dollar coins since 1990 is as follows - 1 Dollar coins - 92,700,000 total issued 2 Dollar coins - 88,050,000 total issued Damaged and worn coins are withdrawn from circulation as they are returned to the bank. The 10 and 20 cent coins are relatively recently issued, so not many would have been withdrawn yet. According to the RBNZ figures, it would seem that the 10 cent coin is the most used closely followed by the 20 cent coin.
