The South African Reserve Bank launched a commemorative R5 circulation coin in celebration of the 90th anniversary of the South African Reserve Bank.

The coin was minted by the South African mint.

 

THE COIN REFLECTS A THEME COMPRISING

THE FOLLOWING:

* The well-known use of the motif of St. George and the dragon which was used on British gold sovereigns and crown from 1817 to the present day;

* The R5 coin which celebrated the former President, Mr Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday;

*The Natura coin reflecting the black rhinoceros is included to highlight the plight of rhino at the hands of poachers;

*The 20c coin reflecting one of the country's national symbols, the king protea;

*The farthing, in use from 1923 to 1960, depicts two sparrows on a mimosa branch;

*The banknote signed by the third Governor, DR MH de Kock, who was in office from 1 July 1945 to 30 June 1962.

 

ONLY 5 millions coins have been minted, which is very unfortunate, because not even 10% of all South Africans will own one !!!

 

 

Coins will be shipped in zip lock bags.
