New Zealand-issued British Postal Orders
It is not yet known when these were first issued. The majority of them were overprinted. They ceased to be issued during 1985 or 1986 due to the announcement by Mr. (now Sir) Roger Douglas that foreign exchange controls were being abolished.
The 5 Shillings denomination was not commonly overprinted.
Any extant examples are very sought after by collectors.
