Product Description:
The 2 Rand Gold Coin was minted by the South African Rand refinery between 1961 – 1983. These coins have the exact same dimensions and bullion content as its twin, the British sovereign.
This coin is a unique example of a bullion coin, as the value of the coin was backed by the actual bullion value contained within it. The words “South Africa” and 2 R are inscribed on the coin in English and Afrikaans.
Obverse: A prancing Springbok with date and denomination
Reverse: Jan Van Riebeeck, the founder of Cape Town as well as “Eendrag Maak Mag” or “Unity is Strength”.
