The New Zealand one-dollar note was introduced on 10 July 1967 as part of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand’s third issue round. The third issue round was the first round in which the official currency was denominated in dollars and utilised the decimal system. First issue and second issue rounds were valued in pounds and utilised the imperial system. The one dollar-note was officially removed from circulation in 1991, along with the two-dollar note, as one-dollar and two-dollar coins had commenced production the previous year.
The New Zealand one-dollar note featured Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and a Fantail as well as several Clematis paniculata flowers on the reverse.[1]
