New Zealand - Sixpence - 1953 to 1965 - Price Guide
The reverse of these coins shows extinct huia bird perched on a branch. The last confirmed sighting of a huia was in 1907, although there was a credible sighting in 1924. Like the extinctions of other New Zealand birds such as the piopio in the 19th century, the decline of the huia was poorly studied.
