Aren't the mint owned by the NZ government then?

New Zealand Mint is a private company - but as far as I know the only mint in NZ, the currency coins/notes are produced offshore.

Same deal as Perth Mint - they can produce legal tender coins for some Pacific countries under licence (think Tuvalu issues from the Perth Mint), but that's why the New Zealand Fern is a round, not a coin.

At least the Kiwis have a private bullion mint :)

New Zealand Mint has a new owner, who's eyeing up international expansion.

New Zealander Simon Harding has purchased the company, which trades bullion and issues commemorative coins, from its founder, Gary McNabb for an undisclosed amount.

Mr Harding's background includes positions as financial controller at London Futures and Options Exchange and senior vice president of New York-based IIR, the world's largest conference and training company.

That's great news, the NZ mint produces some of the most beautiful coins - hopefully with a new direction they will be a bigger presence on the world market.
