About the table data
This table shows the serial number ranges used in the previous banknote series that was first issued in 1999. This was the first polymer banknote issue for New Zealand and a number of these banknotes are still in circulation.
Not all denominations of New Zealand banknotes are produced in every year as production is based on demand.
Our quality assurance programme may require some serial numbers not be issued into circulation.
