    I found this post yesterday at an antique dealer in Ceres (where the fruit juice is made). Nothing extraordinary (42 in the catalog Krause ) except the date, but as it is written by hand, it is possible that the scribe was distracted.

    The date is 28- 6 -1900 instead of 28- 5 -1900.

    Someone has information?

    Hello Western Cape (do not be jealous, it's cold and it's raining)

    Hi, this link may assist you ...

  2. Hi,

    Although my response is late, it is only for future reference.

     

    The website seems to be correct and totally legitimate.

     

    The gold 1 Rand and 2 Rand coins replaced the ½£ and 1£ coins in 1961 and were minted until 1983.

     

    Details of the gold R1 coin from 1965 up to 1983 as follows, (1961 – 1964 differs slightly)

    The gold content = 0.91667 with copper = 0.0833 (22 ct gold)

    Weight = 3.99402 g

    Diameter = 19.4 mm

    Gold content = 3.66 g

     

    Thousands of these coins were melted and are becoming scarce even in South Africa. One can buy many proof sets in "long proof set boxes" without the gold R1 and R2. All the gold were removed from the proof sets.

     

    The mintage differ from year to year but for the years 1967, 1969, 1971, 1972 and 1980 an average of 100,000 coins were exported from South Africa to the rest of the World.
