@coinc026: 🪙 DID YOU KNOW? 🇿🇦 SOUTH AFRICAN COIN HISTORY! The ½c, 1c, 2c, 5c, 10c, 20c, 50c, and silver R1 coin sets were part of South Africa’s Second Decimal Coinage era (1965–1990). In 1962, changes to the size, design, and metal content of South African coins were being considered, mainly because of rising silver prices. Various coin patterns were produced for evaluation by a parliamentary committee. The growing use of automated coin-handling machines also made it important to select coin designs suitable for long-term use. 💰 Do you have old South African coins in your collection?
