The Zealandian pound was the currency of the Kingdom of Zealandia until October 2011. The Zealandian Pound had been created by HM Zealandia Government shortly after the Kingdom was founded. The Zealandian Pound was orginally worth $NZD 1 until September 6, 2010. Afterwards, His Majesty's Zealandian Treasury advised His Majesty's Zealandian Government to revise the worth of the pound to its final value. The Zealandian Pound was divided into 100 sub-units called Pence (singular: Penny).
