The first R1 and R2 coins were issued when South Africa became a republic and introduced the rand as its national currency in 1961, after the referendum of November 1960 which established autonomy from the British Empire. The R1 and R2 were gold bullions coins that replaced the half-pound and pound gold coins introduced in 1952. The gold rand coins were minted until 1983.
The scale weighs it at between 7.9 and 8 grams ( I have attached both photos )
