Gold Reef City is a theme park near Johannesburg, South Africa, that is located on the site of a gold mine that was closed in 1971. Everything within the attraction based on a vintage theme corresponding to the 1886 gold rush that led to the founding and rapid expansion of the city of Johannesburg. These souvenir tokens were minted in the denominations of the old South African Pound currency that circulated in the area at that time.
