This infobox shows the latest status before this currency was rendered obsolete.
The dollar was the currency of New Brunswick between 1860 and 1867. It replaced the pound at a rate of 4 dollars = 1 pound (5 shillings = 1 dollar) and was equal to the Canadian dollar. The New Brunswick dollar was replaced by the Canadian dollar at par when New Brunswick entered the Canadian Confederation.
Coins
Coins were issued between 1861 and 1864 in denominations of 1⁄2, 1, 5, 10 and 20 cent. The 1⁄2 and 1 cent were struck in bronze, the others in silver. The 1⁄2 cent piece was struck in error by the Royal Mint, as New Brunswick used a different pound conversion rate than Nova Scotia and did not require the denomination. As most of the coins were returned for melting, surviving 1⁄2 cent pieces are scarce. [1]
