De Beers Consolidated Mines - this is for all 4 tokens;

Registered & Insured Postage: R30

These were issued to staff of businesses in lieu of coin. In the 1800s the argument supporting payment to staff was the shortage of coin in circulation, but in reality employees were forced to spend their wages in the company's stores at highly inflated prices - resulting in an effective dramatic lowering of their actual salary and disposable income.
 
The letters D. B. C. M. Ltd. stand for De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited. Store under the value indicates its use in a Mine Compound shop. Numerous Mines formed the Group each having different tokens by various piercings or countermarks on standard pieces.
