This specimen was lot 23367 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2020), where it sold for $95. The catalog description[1] noted, "NEW ZEALAND. Shilling, 1937. PCGS MS-65 Gold Shield.

In 1948, the obverse was revised from "GEORGE VI KING EMPEROR" to "KING GEORGE THE SIXTH." The denomination was terminated upon decimalization in 1965.
